You can measure how long the delay has been by using a counter or Date variable. When the two minute has expired, remove the handlers and timer (if you aren't using enter_frame).
Re: [flexcoders] Timed Progress bar for 2 minutes.
You'll need to implement a polling mechanism that ties into your server-side process that can update your progress control. If you are using something like BlazeDS or sockets and can retrieve the that value in realtime you just need to figure ( current / total ) = percent complete. From a user point of view I'd hate to have to sit and look at something running for 2 minutes at a time; just saying'.

Re: [flexcoders] Timed Progress bar for 2 minutes.
Are you sure it is exactly 2 minutes? DO you really need to show progress? A spinning animation might suit you better, keep it spinning until the load is done.

[flexcoders] Question on extending components for Mobile Apps
Hello All, If I am to create custom components inside of Flash Builder for Mobile, does it always have to begin by extending the View Class? I'm not talking about custom controls, but Views that would contain a ton of custom controls (one being a Loader component). Up until now (for non-mobile apps), I've always started by extending the UIComponent Class since that is probably the most basic class to build upon. Thanks for any advice you can throw my way, Mike
Re: [flexcoders] Timed Progress bar for 2 minutes.
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. From: Paul Andrews p...@ipauland.com To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday, January 10, 2012 4:13 AM Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Timed Progress bar for 2 minutes.

The OP has said what it's doing - a firmware update. It takes 2-3 minutes. It's not a db transaction.
