来自SwingWorker的jProgressBar更新

Question

I use to monitor a long running task by updating a ProgressBar. The long running task is of course performed in a Swingworker thread.

I used to program things like that :

public class MySwingWorkerClass extends SwingWorker<Void, Void> {   
    private JProgressBar progressBar;    

    public MySwingWorker(JProgressBar aProgressBar) {        
        this.progressBar = aProgressBar;           
        progressBar.setVisible(true);        
        progressBar.setStringPainted(true);
        progressBar.setValue(0);        
    }

    @Override
    public Void doInBackground() {
        //long running task
        loop {  
            calculation();
            progressBar.setValue(value);
        }
        return null;
    }    

    @Override
    public void done() {                
        progressBar.setValue(100);
        progressBar.setStringPainted(false);
        progressBar.setVisible(false);      
   }
}

but recently I discovered that I could do it by using the "setProgress" and defining the property change and do things like that

public class MySwingWorkerClass extends SwingWorker<Void, Void> {   
    private JProgressBar progressBar;    

    public MySwingWorker(JProgressBar aProgressBar) {        
        addPropertyChangeListener(new PropertyChangeListener() {
            public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent evt) {
                if ("progress".equals(evt.getPropertyName())) {
                    progressBar.setValue((Integer) evt.getNewValue());
                }
            }
        });

        progressBar.setVisible(true);        
        progressBar.setStringPainted(true);
        progressBar.setValue(0);
        setProgress(0);
    }

    @Override
    public Void doInBackground() {
        //long running task
        loop {  
            calculation();
            setProgress(value);
        }
        return null;
    }    

    @Override
    public void done() {                
        setProgress(100);
        progressBar.setValue(100);
        progressBar.setStringPainted(false);
        progressBar.setVisible(false);      
   }
}

My question is : is my first code acceptable or shall I use the setProgress for anyreason ? I find the second code more complicated and in my case and don't know if there is any advantage or reason to use the second one.

Any advise ?

EDIT Thanks for the answer. As a summary. First solution is "wrong" because of the progress bar update is performed outside the EDT. Second solution is "correct" because the progress bar update is performed inside the EDT

Now, according to the "interesting" answer of @mKorbel in my case my calculation give results in HTML text which I "insert" (see this link ). My current code is the following.

I publish(string) and my process code looks like that

@Override
    protected void process(List<String> strings) {
        for (String s : strings) {
            try {
                htmlDoc.insertBeforeEnd(htmlDoc.getElement(htmlDoc.getDefaultRootElement(), StyleConstants.NameAttribute, HTML.Tag.TABLE), s);
            } catch (BadLocationException ex) {
            } catch (IOException ex) {
            }
        }
    }

How can I reuse @mKobel to do the same in my case. I mean he use to override table rendering in my case what renderer shall I override (jTextPane?) and how ?

Answer 1

In the first code, you are calling the following line in a non-EDT (Event Dispatcher Thread) thread. So it is not thread safe:

progressBar.setValue(value);

This may result in unexpected behaviour as Swing is not designed as a thread-safe library.

There are different methods to perform this in the Swing way. One correct way of this is what you have done in the second post. Another would be to use publish()/process() methods, and a third method would be writing your own thread instead of SwingWorker and using SwingUtilities.invokeLater() .

I use to monitor a long running task by updating a ProgressBar. The long running task is of course performed in a Swingworker thread.

right you can use SwingWorker in all cases for redirecting any heavy and long running task to the Background

        private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

        @Override

            return getValueAt(0, column).getClass();
        }

        @Override

    public JComponent makeUI() {
        TableColumn column = table.getColumnModel().getColumn(1);

                    current++;
                    try {

                    } catch (InterruptedException ie) {

                    }
                    publish(100 * current / lengthOfTask);
                }
                return sleepDummy * lengthOfTask;
            }

            @Override

                model.setValueAt(c.get(c.size() - 1), key, 1);
            }

            @Override

                        text = ignore.getMessage();
                    }
                }
                System.out.println(key + ":" + text + "(" + i + "ms)");
            }
        };
        model.addRow(new Object[]{str, 0});
        worker.execute();
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {

            @Override
            public void run() {
                createAndShowGUI();
            }
        });
    }

    public static void createAndShowGUI() {
        JFrame frame = new JFrame();
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        frame.getContentPane().add(new TableCellProgressBar().makeUI());
        frame.setSize(320, 240);
        frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
        frame.setVisible(true);
    }
}

class ProgressRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer {

    private final JProgressBar b = new JProgressBar(0, 100);

    public ProgressRenderer() {
        super();
        setOpaque(true);
        b.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(1, 1, 1, 1));
    }

    @Override
    public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row, int column) {
        Integer i = (Integer) value;
        String text = "Completed";
        if (i < 0) {
            text = "Error";
        } else if (i < 100) {
            b.setValue(i);
            return b;
        }
        super.getTableCellRendererComponent(table, text, isSelected, hasFocus, row, column);
        return this;
    }
}

but why complicating Wwing GUI by using SwingWorker (required deepest knowledge about Java Essential Classes and Generics too),

Basic implementations for Runnable#Thread required only invokeLater for output to the Swing GUI, and in the case that started from EDT (from Swing/AWT Listener), and without any code line contains Thread.sleep(int) then is invokeLater only adviced / required for production code

                    frame.setTitle("All work done");
                }
            }
        }).start();
    }
}

my conclusion for real heavy and long running task you have look at Runnable#Thread (simple, easy, non_buggy and clear way), only if is your knowledge about Java & Swing very well then you can thinking about SwingWorker

Answer 3

Your second approach is correct and is even documented in the class javadoc of the SwingWorker class. The 'progress' event is fired on the EDT, so your listener updates the progress bar on the EDT. This is not the case in your first approach.

An example of another approach (using publish/process as indicated by vizier) can be found in my answer on a previous SO question

Answer 4

如本例所示，在第二个示例中使用worker的setProgress()是正确的：任何PropertyChangeListener都将在事件派发线程上异步通知。
