ABSTRACT:
A method, apparatus, and computer readable medium for creating, updating, and displaying a modal progress dialog window containing a job-specific progress indicator is described. The modal progress dialog window is updated while the job, typically a user-invoked function within an application, is running. As a modal dialog window, its creation is accompanied by the creation of a second thread. The second thread works in conjunction with a host application thread to create, display, refresh, and dispose the progress dialog window. Because the host thread and the second thread are able to alternate control of the progress dialog window, the progress indicator within the window is updated and displayed at meaningful intervals upto job completion on a display monitor while the job is running.
