Progress Notification

From the version 1.4.2 you can get notified about the progress of the operations of the engines and DataLinks.

The already implemented feature can be used in all cases, for example when you wirte a file the engine knows the total records to be written and the actual record then can be accurate in the notification. However if you read a file the engine only know the current record and not the total then informs -1.

The usaje is simple you must to instanciate the engine and before call any operation you must call the SetProgressHandler

FileHelperEngine engine = new FileHelperEngine(typeof(Orders)); engine.SetProgressHandler(new ProgressChangeHandler(ProgressChange)); engine.ReadFile(...

and in your Progress change method:

private void ProgressChange(ProgressEventArgs e) { prog1.PositionMax = e.ProgressTotal; prog1.Position = e.ProgressCurrent; prog1.Text = "Record " + e.ProgressCurrent.ToString(); Application.DoEvents(); }

Check the demo application for an example that looks like

 

Into the distribution you can found My XpProgressBar for using it thogeter with the FileHelpers.
