Transport Interface
22-24
Using the Transport Interface
// vStatus subtype
:SetStatusDialog('Connecting, 'vStatus, "Looking for host...");
// vStatusTitle subtype
:SetStatusDialog('Connecting, 'vStatusTitle, {statusText: "Connecting
to host...", titleText: "Data set 4"});
// vConfirm subtype
:SetStatusDialog('Confirming, 'vConfirm, {statusText: "The host has a
new data set for you. Do you want to receive it now?",
secondary:{text:"Receive Data Set", script: func() ... },
primary:{text:"Disconnect Now", script: func() ... }});
// vProgress subtype
:SetStatusDialog('Sending, 'vProgress, {statusText: "Sending data
set...", titleText: "Data set 4", progress:40});
// vGauge subtype
:SetStatusDialog('Sending, 'vGauge, {statusText: "Sending data
set...", titleText: "Data set 4", gauge:40});
// vBarber subtype
:SetStatusDialog('Sending, 'vBarber, {statusText: "Sending data
set...", titleText:"Data set 4", barber:true});
Once the status view is open, each time you call
SetStatusDialog
, the system
closes and reopens all its child views. This is fairly fast, but if you just want to
update a progress indicator that is already visible in the subtypes
vProgress
,
vGauge
, or
vBarber
, you can use the alternate method
UpdateIndicator
.
This
protoStatusTemplate
method updates the progress indicator child of the
status view: the page image for the
vProgress
subtype, the horizontal bar for the
vGauge
subtype, and animation of the barber pole for the
vBarber
subtype.
For example, you'd use
UpdateIndicator
to update the
vGauge
subtype
as follows:
statusDialog:UpdateIndicator({name:'vGauge, values:{gauge: 50,}});
Note that the frame of data you pass to
UpdateIndicator
consists of two slots,
name
and
values
, that hold the name of the subtype and the value(s) you want to
set, respectively. The
values
slot is specified just like the values parameter to
SetStatusDialog
.
Also, note that
UpdateIndicator
is a method of
protoStatusTemplate
,
and you need to send this message to the open status view. A reference to the open
status view is stored in the
statusDialog
slot of the transport frame, so you can
send the message to the value of that slot, as shown above.
