Method Detail

started

void started(BackgroundEvent evt)

Always called on the EDT right before the background task actually begins.

doInBackground

void doInBackground(BackgroundEvent evt)

Always called on a background thread. This is the method that all long running tasks are placed in. If you need to update the Swing GUI, you may call the setProgress/setProgressPercent methods on BackgroundWorker, or you may call the publish method on BackgroundWorker to cause some data to be passed to the GUI.

done

void done(BackgroundEvent evt)

Always called on the EDT when all background work as finished

process

void process(BackgroundEvent evt)

Always called on the EDT. This method may be called many times during the processing of the background task (depending on how many times the doInBackground method calls publish). This method will be called concurrently with work going on in the doInBackground method.
