Hi, this is a great tip. I nearly understand how it works. My point is where I allocate the object progressViewController and where I release it, especially when I call the ProgressView inside a subview, not the main view.
MAybe you could send me the example code or give me a hint.
Thanks for the tip !
Wolfgang

Hi!
Your tutorial is very useful, but i’m wondering if you can send me by mail the project sample. It is possible?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Bob,
Surely, all you need to do is to start all of this prior to posting the XML request that obtains the file? I.e. Post XML, start activity indicator..When your data completes (and you delegate’s didFinishLoading gets called, you begin parsing the XML (e.g. using NSXMLParser).
Then…when the parsing is complete (i.e. you Parser’s delegate’s parserDidEndDocument is called), then you stop the full screen animation.
Does this make sense? If not, drop me a mail and I’ll see if I can help

Thanks for the tip on how to do this.

However, the problem with this is that if you are loading data from an XML file that you acquire from online is that this screen won’t appear until after that file as loaded.

You will need to start off a thread for the XML file download.

Any tips for this?

Do you have an example project of this?

I can’t seem to get it to work. I have a tabbarcontroller setup with 2 view controllers (for 2 tabs) under the tabbarcontroller. I’m not sure where I add the progressviewcontroller exactly.

Thanks,
Kim

I am having trouble implementing this method with an app that I am developing. I have tried numerous times and various different ways to get a working activity indicator to appear over a webview in my application. The activity indicator is to show network activity in my app. Any chance you could email me and help me out a bit? I would greatly appreciate it!
