I need an advise on optimizing a custom indicator, that shows progress of downloading file in multiple chunks, in concurrent threads. I couldn't find a correct name for that type - pieces, fragments, chunks? But it should look like bittorrent progress bar or defrag progress from Win XP. And it looks like this:
My custom ProgressBar class as following:
public class FragmentedProgressBar extends ProgressBar {
private int height;
private float fragWidth;
private final ArrayList<Integer> stateColors = new ArrayList<>();
private final Paint progressPaint = new Paint();
private ConcurrentHashMap<Integer, Integer> barData;
public FragmentedProgressBar(Context context) {
super(context);
this.init(context);
}
public FragmentedProgressBar(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
this.init(context);
}
public FragmentedProgressBar(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);
this.init(context);
}
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
private void init(Context context) {
barData = new ConcurrentHashMap<>();
stateColors.addAll(
Arrays.asList(
context.getResources().getColor(android.R.color.holo_blue_dark),
context.getResources().getColor(android.R.color.holo_green_light),
context.getResources().getColor(android.R.color.holo_orange_light),
context.getResources().getColor(android.R.color.holo_red_light)
)
);
}
public synchronized void setProgress(int progress, int state) {
/* state serves to indicate "started", "ready", "retry", "error" by color */
if(barData != null ) {
barData.put(progress, state);
}
super.setProgress(progress);
}
@Override
protected synchronized void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);
int width = getMeasuredWidth();
height = getMeasuredHeight();
setMeasuredDimension(width, height);
fragWidth = (float) width / getMax();
}
@Override
protected synchronized void onDraw(Canvas canvas) {
for (Map.Entry<Integer, Integer> ent : barData.entrySet()) {
int id = ent.getKey();
int state = ent.getValue();
float xleft = fragWidth * ( id - 1 );
progressPaint.setColor(stateColors.get(state));
canvas.drawRect(xleft, 0.0f, xleft + fragWidth, 0.0f + height, progressPaint);
}
}
}
However, in this approach, it redraws whole bar on every progress tick, and, I think, it's quite inefficient. I've done formerly same bar in javafx, extending Canvas and drawing each chunk separately on it.
What will be a better solution for android, desirably extending and reusing the ProgressBar class?
Thanks
