Animation not always working

[jfdepierre]

Dear all,

When I use the oAnimate:CopyFiles() animation as Action in a Dialog, than
the animation works fine when I do an Upload to a server.
When I do a Download from that server my animation starts only after the
Download is finished.


DEFINE DIALOG oDlf RESOURCE "DataToServer"

oAnimate = TAnimate():Redefine( 160, oDlf )

REDEFINE SBUTTON ID 161 OF oDlf ;
Title "Starten";
BORDER ;
ACTION oAnimate:CopyFiles() , DoTheUp(Down)load( oDlf, cUrl, cFile,
cEmaildef, cDomein );
COLORS CLR_WHITE, CLR_RED;
TOOLTIP "Starten"

REDEFINE SBUTTON ID 162 OF oDlf ;
Title "Cancel";
BORDER ;
ACTION oDlf:End();
COLORS CLR_WHITE, CLR_BLUE;
TOOLTIP "Terug"

ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlf

The Action DoTheUp(Down)load starts the Tiptest.prg from
xHB\Samples\Internet\

Can anyone give an indication why the animation does not work during a
download?

Thanks,

Jules,

Try this:

oAnimate:CopyFiles() , SysRefresh(), ...

Antonio,

I have tried to implement Sysrefres() on several places.
That helped in other instances, but not here.

Do we have different animations?

Thanks,

Jules,

May we see the source code for Tiptest.prg ?

Antonio:

Where can I found an example of TAnimate class ?

I studied the subject and found that uploading goes in intervals and downloading is continous until the end.
So there is no timeslot for an animation.
