Hi Justin, 2 years later ... I'm looking for a non dirty way to implement a view with a progress bar who indicates the status of a certain task who takes some time to achieive. The task will be lunched in a thread. I first tried using a singleton class with the thread as an instance variable, but I realized that a different server thread serves each request, and so has one instance of the singleton. So it's not a good option. Does anybody know how I should implement something like that ? I done it before passing by a file on disk to get the status of the thread. I posted a more detailed question here : http://railsforum.com/viewtopic.php?pid=101201#p101201 Thanks -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
