Hi, pretty sure this has been covered previously, but things have moved on and thought I’d get the latest from the brains on here!
I’m using Call Session.myFile.Download to initiate a download - works fine, but offers two things that I’d like, download progress and more importantly, when the download has finished…
Any ideas on how (or if) this can be achieved?
Many thanks,
Dave.
there are two events in the fileuploader control: uploadprogressed, and uploadfinished
that should fit your needs.
You cannot get download progress to the user’s machine. Their browser will display this in whatever fashion it implements, but nothing is returned to the Xojo server-side application for this. There are very complex and convoluted ways this could be done, but it’d be a large undertaking for something that really shouldn’t matter.
You could present a UI with a button that, when clicked, initiates the download then changes to provide instructions or thank the user as they download the file, but you won’t know if or when the download has completed.
Thanks Anthony.
Notice we’re talking about downloading here, not uploading
