ProgressDialog не отображается до завершения функции

Question

Я пытаюсь показать процесс вращения во время загрузки некоторых данных, но он не отображается до тех пор, пока данные не загружены?

Вот как я пытаюсь это сделать:

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
{
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.screen1);

    //Show spinner while data is being loaded
    ProgressDialog dialog = ProgressDialog.show(this, "", "Loading. Please wait...", true);

    LoadPreferences();
    LoadData();

    //Remove the spinner once all the data has been loaded
    dialog.dismiss();
}

Что я делаю не так?

Обновленный код:

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
{
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.screen1);

//Show spinner while data is being loaded
final ProgressDialog dialog = ProgressDialog.show(this, "", "Loading. Please wait...", true);

// define and run background thread
Thread backgroundThread = new Thread(new Runnable() 
{            
    public void run() 
    {
        // keep sure that this operations
        // are thread-safe!
        Looper.prepare(); //I had to include this to prevent force close error
        LoadPreferences();
        LoadData();

        runOnUiThread(new Runnable() 
        {                    
            public void run() 
            {
                dialog.dismiss();
            }
        });
    }
 });
        backgroundThread.start();
}

Теперь загружается приложение и отображается счетчик.Но моя функция LoadData () вызывает сбой при попытке обновить интерфейс:

Answer 1

Да, Mitch Wheat абсолютно правильно.

Вот что вы должны отредактировать:

   public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {


        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        //Show spinner while data is being loaded
        final ProgressDialog dialog = ProgressDialog.show(this, "", "Loading. Please wait...", true);

        Thread thread=new Thread(new Runnable(){

        public void run(){
            LoadPreferences();
            LoadData();
            runOnUiThread(new Runnable(){

                @Override
                public void run() {
                    if(dialog.isShowing())
                        dialog.dismiss();

                }

            });
        }

        });
        thread.start();

}

Вы должны загрузить данные в фоновом потоке:

public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) 
{
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    final View screen1 = this.findViewById(R.id.screen1);
    this.setContentView(screen1);

    //Show spinner while data is being loaded
    final ProgressDialog dialog = ProgressDialog.show(this, "", "Loading. Please wait...", true);

    // define and run background thread
    Thread backgroundThread = new Thread(new Runnable() {            
        @Override
        public void run() {
            // keep sure that this operations
            // are thread-safe!
            LoadPreferences();
            LoadData();

            runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {                    
                @Override
                public void run() {
                    dialog.dismiss();                        
                }
            })
        }
    });
    backgroundThread.start();
}

Я полагаю, что вы пропустили эту строку кода, она должна быть помещена только ДО вызова setConetntView:

onCreate(){
    ....
    requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_INDETERMINATE_PROGRESS);        
    this.setContentView(screen1);
    ....
}
