My application will try to connect to a java framework, which in turn calls
some scripts to execute on a server.
If it is a firmware update script that is called, it will typically wait for
2-3 minutes before the update on the server is complete. So I have to keep user
understand that process is going on (or else, they may think the system is
hanged or not responding with 2 minutes of spinning), to provide
some understandably, I am thinking of static pooling a progress bar for 2-3
(standard time which we know) minutes that looks more user friendly. What say?
Cheers,
Venkat.
