Question

I have a thrad that calls a function that populates a list in an activity, I would put a progressDialog when the function is running, I wonder what I do to change the progress dialog is invoked when the activity is called, follows current code :

new Thread(){            
         public void run() {

                runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {       
                    @Override
                    public void run() {
                        loadList();
                    }
                });
            }
         }.start();

I think you would be better off using an AsyncTask, easy to attach a progress dialog to this.
