This page is specific to
Microsoft Visual Studio 2008/.NET Framework 3.5

Other versions are also available for the following:
.NET Framework Class Library
BackgroundWorker..::.ReportProgress Method (Int32)

Raises the ProgressChanged event.

Namespace:  System.ComponentModel
Assembly:  System (in System.dll)
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public Sub ReportProgress ( _
    percentProgress As Integer _
)
Visual Basic (Usage)
Dim instance As BackgroundWorker
Dim percentProgress As Integer

instance.ReportProgress(percentProgress)
C#
public void ReportProgress(
    int percentProgress
)
Visual C++
public:
void ReportProgress(
    int percentProgress
)
JScript
public function ReportProgress(
    percentProgress : int
)

Parameters

percentProgress
Type: System..::.Int32
The percentage, from 0 to 100, of the background operation that is complete.
ExceptionCondition
InvalidOperationException

The WorkerReportsProgress property is set to false.

If you need the background operation to report on its progress, you can call the ReportProgress method to raise the ProgressChanged event. The WorkerReportsProgress property value must be true, or ReportProgress will throw an InvalidOperationException.

It is up to you to implement a meaningful way of measuring your background operation's progress as a percentage of the total task completed.

The following code example demonstrates the use of the ReportProgress method to report the progress of an asynchronous operation to the user. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the BackgroundWorker class.

Visual Basic
' Abort the operation if the user has canceled.
' Note that a call to CancelAsync may have set 
' CancellationPending to true just after the
' last invocation of this method exits, so this 
' code will not have the opportunity to set the 
' DoWorkEventArgs.Cancel flag to true. This means
' that RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs.Cancelled will
' not be set to true in your RunWorkerCompleted
' event handler. This is a race condition.
If worker.CancellationPending Then
    e.Cancel = True
Else
    If n < 2 Then
        result = 1
    Else
        result = ComputeFibonacci(n - 1, worker, e) + _
                 ComputeFibonacci(n - 2, worker, e)
    End If

    ' Report progress as a percentage of the total task.
    Dim percentComplete As Integer = _
        CSng(n) / CSng(numberToCompute) * 100
    If percentComplete > highestPercentageReached Then
        highestPercentageReached = percentComplete
        worker.ReportProgress(percentComplete)
    End If

End If

C#
// Abort the operation if the user has canceled.
// Note that a call to CancelAsync may have set 
// CancellationPending to true just after the
// last invocation of this method exits, so this 
// code will not have the opportunity to set the

if (worker.CancellationPending)

                 ComputeFibonacci(n - 2, worker, e);
    }

    // Report progress as a percentage of the total task.
    int percentComplete = 
        (int)((float)n / (float)numberToCompute * 100);
    if (percentComplete > highestPercentageReached)
    {
        highestPercentageReached = percentComplete;
        worker.ReportProgress(percentComplete);
    }
