How to delegate SwingWorker's publish to other methods

- by Savvas Dalkitsis

My "problem" can be described by the following. Assume we have an intensive process that we want to have running in the background and have it update a Swing JProgress bar. The solution is easy: import java.util.List; import javax.swing.JOptionPane; import javax.swing.JProgressBar; import javax.swing.SwingWorker; /** * @author Savvas Dalkitsis */ public class Test { public static void main(String[] args) { final JProgressBar progressBar = new JProgressBar(0,99); SwingWorker<Void, Integer> w = new SwingWorker<Void, Integer>(){ @Override protected void process(List<Integer> chunks) { progressBar.setValue(chunks.get(chunks.size()-1)); } @Override protected Void doInBackground() throws Exception { for (int i=0;i<100;i++) { publish(i); Thread.sleep(300); } return null; } }; w.execute(); JOptionPane.showOptionDialog(null, new Object[] { "Process", progressBar }, "Process", JOptionPane.OK_CANCEL_OPTION, JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE, null, null, null); } } Now assume that i have various methods that take a long time. For instance we have a method that downloads a file from a server. Or another that uploads to a server. Or anything really. What is the proper way of delegating the publish method to those methods so that they can update the GUI appropriately? What i have found so far is this (assume that the method "aMethod" resides in some other package for instance): import java.awt.event.ActionEvent; import java.util.List; import javax.swing.AbstractAction; import javax.swing.Action; import javax.swing.JOptionPane; import javax.swing.JProgressBar; import javax.swing.SwingWorker; /** * @author Savvas Dalkitsis */ public class Test { public static void main(String[] args) { final JProgressBar progressBar = new JProgressBar(0,99); SwingWorker<Void, Integer> w = new SwingWorker<Void, Integer>(){ @Override protected void process(List<Integer> chunks) { progressBar.setValue(chunks.get(chunks.size()-1)); } @SuppressWarnings("serial") @Override protected Void doInBackground() throws Exception { aMethod(new AbstractAction() { @Override public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { publish((Integer)getValue("progress")); } }); return null; } }; w.execute(); JOptionPane.showOptionDialog(null, new Object[] { "Process", progressBar }, "Process", JOptionPane.OK_CANCEL_OPTION, JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE, null, null, null); } public static void aMethod (Action action) { for (int i=0;i<100;i++) { action.putValue("progress", i); action.actionPerformed(null); try { Thread.sleep(300); } catch (InterruptedException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } } It works but i know it lacks something. Any thoughts?
