Indicating State of Completion
Plug-ins are executed asynchronously. When a query containing plug-ins is executed, the query can be complete before the plug-ins have completed execution. In this case, there are cells whose results are pending. Within these cells, you can display the plug-in current status (as the string n% complete). To do so, within %OnCompute(), periodically invoke the %SetPercentComplete() instance method; the argument is an integer between 0 and 100. For example, you could do the following while iterating through the statement result:
// update pct complete
If (n#100 = 0) {
Do ..%SetPercentComplete(100*(n/pFactCount))
}
The appropriate approach depends on the logic in %OnCompute(). In some cases, the majority of the computation time might occur outside of this iteration.
The pivot table automatically refreshes when the results are available.
