Updating a progress bar from a code loop

Hi all,

I have a lengthy routine that I'd like to show a progress bar for. The routine runs in a while() loop, and calls a delegate which implements the progress update. My progress window opens OK but nothing gets updated, though I know that it's getting the correct values set.

I'm assuming the problem is that because I'm not running the event loop at this point, updates aren't getting processed. Makes sense I think.

How do I give some time to the event loop while I'm running my own loop? I tried:

[[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] runMode:NSRunLoopCommonModes beforeDate: [NSDate distantFuture]];

but it didn't fix the problem. Note that I've tried running my window both modally and non-modally but it's the same either way.

What should I be doing?



tia,

Graham
