The ProgressMonitor class is used to report on the status of a time-consuming task.
Creating a ProgressMonitor
public ProgressMonitor(Component parentComponent, Object message, String note, int minimum, int maximum)
ProgressMonitor monitor = new ProgressMonitor(parent, "Loading Progress", "Getting Started...", 0, 200);
monitor.setNote("Loaded " + progress + " files");
The millisToDecideToPopup property represents the number of milliseconds that the monitor waits before deciding if it needs to display the pop-up window.
