I would like to have a progress bar for my application while file/folder copy is in progress. Is it possible to use "FileUtils.cp_r" in background. So that it create different process and i can loop it to compare initial & current size for incremental integer value. The work flow i am expecting is as follows:- initial_file_size create_copy_process_bg (copy) while copy exist check_current_file_size calculate_presentage_value #use persentage integer value to set progressbar on gui. end What i find it difficult is to run "FileUtils.cp_r" as different process in background. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
