Re: Do I need Threads for this?



Yes, you need threads, but it's not that hard. You make a class that
implements Runnable or extends Thread. Then you can do all ten files
at once, if you choose to!

Hmm, seems a bit awkward, but then Java seems that way sometimes...

Methodically, I can't understand how by splitting the work into two threads
its going to update the label at the time I need it to - won't it just split
into two and one process copy over the files in one thread all at once and
update the labels all at once in the other, meaning that there won't be any
real live interaction between the two? I guess I'm really saying that I
don't understand how the thread processes interact with each other...
