I need to create a progress bar for a command that I run with popen, but so far I've had no luck. Here's a sniplet of code:
Pd = QtGui.QProgressDialog ( "Creating Disk Image...", "Stop", 0, 0, self) Pd.show () from os.path import isdir if isdir(self.foldername): changessize = self.ui.CHNGLcd.intValue() changesname = self.ui.CHNGName.text() os.popen("dd if=/dev/zero of="+str(self.foldername)+"/"+str(changesname)+" bs=1M count="+str(changessize)+"; sleep 5; echo 'y' | mkfs.ext3 "+str(self.foldername)+"/"+str(changesname)+"") Pd.hide() I just want the progress bar to show up and bounce back on forth while this process is running but I've only gotten it at best to show up afterwards. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Working-with-os.popen-and-qprogressdialog-tp15924148p15924148.html Sent from the PyQt mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ PyQt mailing list PyQt@riverbankcomputing.com http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt
