What is the usage of the progress bar in android?

The ProgressBar in Android is a view component used to display progress, typically showing the progress of a task or data loading.

There are several ways to use a ProgressBar:

1. Add a ProgressBar to the layout file.
2. – The ProgressBar element with the ID progressBar has a layout width and height set to wrap_content.
3. Obtain an instance of ProgressBar in the code and set the progress.
4. Find the progress bar with the ID progressBar and set the progress to 50%.
5. Customize the style of the progress bar:
6. // Set the progress bar to a horizontal style
   progressBar.setStyle(ProgressBarStyle.HORIZONTAL);

   // Set the progress bar to a circular style
   progressBar.setStyle(ProgressBarStyle.CIRCLE);

   // Set the progress bar to a small circle spinner style
   progressBar.setStyle(ProgressBarStyle.SPINNER);

7. Set the color of the progress bar:
8. // Set the foreground color of the progress bar
   progressBar.setProgressTintList(ColorStateList.valueOf(Color.RED));

   // Set the background color of the progress bar
   progressBar.setBackgroundTintList(ColorStateList.valueOf(Color.GRAY));

9. Set the maximum value and current progress of the progress bar.
10. // Set the maximum value
    progressBar.setMax(100);

    // Set the current progress
    progressBar.setProgress(50);

11. Monitor the progress bar changes.
12. progressBar.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(new OnSeekBarChangeListener() {
    @Override
    public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int progress, boolean fromUser) {
    // Callback method for when progress changes
    }

    @Override
    public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
    // Callback method for when tracking of progress bar starts
    }

    @Override
    public void onStopTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
    // Callback method for when tracking of progress bar stops
    }
    });

The above are some basic uses of ProgressBar, which can be further customized and used according to one’s needs.
