### wxProgressDialog::wxProgressDialog

wxProgressDialog(const wxString& title, const wxString& message, int maximum = 100, wxWindow * parent = NULL, int style = wxPD_AUTO_HIDE | wxPD_APP_MODAL)

Constructor. Creates the dialog, displays it and disables user input for other windows, or, if wxPD_APP_MODAL flag is not given, for its parent window only.

Parameters

title

Dialog title to show in titlebar.

message

Message displayed above the progress bar.

maximum

Maximum value for the progress bar.

parent

Parent window.

message

Message to show on the dialog.

style

The dialog style. This is the combination of the following bitmask constants defined in wx/defs.h:

wxPD_APP_MODAL | Make the progress dialog modal. If this flag is not given, it is only "locally" modal - that is the input to the parent window is disabled, but not to the other ones.
wxPD_AUTO_HIDE | By default, the progress dialog will disappear from screen as soon as the maximum value of the progress meter has been reached. This flag prevents it from doing it - instead the dialog will wait until the user closes it.
wxPD_CAN_ABORT | This flag tells the dialog that it should have a "Cancel" button which the user may press. If this happens, the next call to Update() will return FALSE.
wxPD_ELAPSED_TIME | This flag tells the dialog that it should show elapsed time (since creating the dialog).
wxPD_ESTIMATED_TIME | This flag tells the dialog that it should show estimated time.
wxPD_REMAINING_TIME | This flag tells the dialog that it should show remaining time.
wxPD_SMOOTH | This flag tells the dialog that it should use smooth gauge (has effect only under 32bit Windows).

### wxProgressDialog::~wxProgressDialog

~wxMessageDialog()

Destructor. Deletes the dialog and enables all top level windows.

### wxProgressDialog::Update

bool Update( int value = -1, const char * newmsg = NULL, )

Updates the dialog, setting the progress bar to the new value and, if given changes the message above it. Returns TRUE if the ABORT button has not been pressed.

If FALSE is returned, the application can either immediately destroy the dialog or ask the user for the confirmation and if the abort is not confirmed the dialog may be resumed with Resume function.

value

The new value of the progress meter. It must be strictly less than the maximum value given to the constructor (i.e., as usual in C, the index runs from 0 to maximum-1).

newmsg

The new messages for the progress dialog text, if none is given the message is not changed.

### wxProgressDialog::Resume

void Resume()

Can be used to continue with the dialog, after the user had chosen ABORT.
