Re: Do I need Threads for this?



Presumably the thread which is doing the file-copying will update some
region in memory, recording it's progress. E.g. "Okay, I'm done with file
#4... now I'm done with #5... #6...", periodically releasing the CPU

Well yes - as in my original code -

mycopyOverFileMethod();
count++;
label.setText("Files Copied:" + count);

- this copies the file, when that's done, surely, the thread continues onto
count++ (recording in memory where its got to) and then sets the label.

Why does my label not update before going back around in the for loop to do
another file copy? Surely the processor is freed up to do the lines after
the mycopyOverFileMethod() before doing this method again? That's why I'm
confused!
