If you give up on portability then replace cmake -E tar with an external
program which has progress capability on Windows.
It looks like 7-zip can do that:
see: https://sevenzip.osdn.jp/chm/cmdline/switches/bs.htm
or: https://sourceforge.net/p/sevenzip/discussion/45797/thread/d10225f7/

I don't work on Windows those day so I won't be able to try it out.

 may be using 'v' verbose option from tar  should be enough.

 i.e.
 cmake -E tar xvz your-archive.tar.gz

 It should display file names as they come out of the archive.
 So unless your very big archive only contains relatively big files, the
 output should evolve quite often.

Yes right.
You need some "size extraction progress" not number of files progress.

I'm not sure classical un-archive program do have the feature.

I'm pretty sure that "working progress bar" is most of the time very
difficult to implement:

Genuine unix tar command does not have such feature and some people uses
'pv' (http://www.ivarch.com/programs/pv.shtml)
for that very same purpose

CMake is using libarchive for handling various archive files (including
tar) libarchive seems to have
some feature for progress display (
https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/wiki/ManPageArchiveReadExtract3)
but CMake code is not using it in any way.

Re: [CMake] Tracking progress of CMake TAR

2018-12-17 Thread Eric Noulard
I guess he is using

cmake -E tar

may be using 'v' verbose option from tar  should be enough.

i.e.
cmake -E tar xvz your-archive.tar.gz

It should display file names as they come out of the archive.
So unless your very big archive only contains relatively big files, the
output should evolve quite often.

Re: [CMake] Tracking progress of CMake TAR

2018-12-17 Thread Ian Cullen
Are you calling tar via a custom command?  tar itself looks to have a 
few options to print progress:


https://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/html_section/tar_25.html

Although none of the options seem to know the archive's size, so aren't 
able to print a completion percentage.

It's awkward to wait 30-60 minutes for file untarring with absolutely 
0 information. I'm not aware of any way to do this through CMake 
directly, only alternative is e.g. python script that does the untar 
for me.


Any suggestions? (sorry if this is reposted, can't remember if acc was

[CMake] Tracking progress of CMake TAR

2018-12-16 Thread Person Withhats
When running tar via CMake (in order to use cross-platform work-ability and
what not) it'd be great to have a progress bar of any sort.

It's awkward to wait 30-60 minutes for file untarring with absolutely 0
information. I'm not aware of any way to do this through CMake directly,
only alternative is e.g. python script that does the untar for me.

Any suggestions? (sorry if this is reposted, can't remember if acc was
