If you are using Servoy 5.2+ you will need this version. If you installed the v2.0 you must update to this version which fixes a major bug with the processFunction being called in a wrong Thread where some calls were failing (databaseManager calls notably). I worked very hard to definitely fix the cancel call which was done AFTER the process itself was finished (!) in the web client, using a combination of Ajax direct call, Server plugin, RMI service and Servlet service in Web client.

Hi Patrick, What is the relationship between the busy-v2.jar and the busy.jar. Should we be renaming the busy-v2.jar to busy.jar? Dean Westover ---

Well, you don’t want the two of them in your /plugins folder that’s for sure! So either replace busy.jar or get rid of it and use v2 instead. I named it busy-v2.jar to clearly state that this is a different one! Both version cannot be used with all Servoy versions - busy.jar will work for Servoy \< 5.2 - busy-v2.jar will work with Servoy \>= v5.1 - yes, I am aware of the overlap ![;)]( "Wink") Hope this clarifies, ---

Hi, is there a chance that the “databaseManager call problem” fix will be backported to version 1.0? I’m stuck with 4.1.7 and that issue gave me more than one headache. ---

Hi, I suggest you file a feature request for this in the tracker of this project. [http://www.servoyforge.net/projects/busy](http://www.servoyforge.net/projects/busy) ---

Hi, I have a question about some functionality if I have a loop and after each cycle i want to inform the user, is this possible? (didn’t see something like that in the examples) Like: ```auto for (var i = 0; i < 10;i++) { //doStuff //doMoreStuff updateStatusOnScreen('Processed 1'); // --> is this somehow possible? } ``` Thanks. ---

It is not possible to change the display while the busy plugin blocks the display, that’s the whole point! ![:)]( "Smile") But please open a feature request on the ServoyForge project and I’ll see if I can add a mechanism to change the text message, although I’m not sure that this will be possible in web client. ---

Does changing the display also mean: opening a form in dialog? Is that the reason why plugins.file.writeFile() inside the busy block does not work correct? In webclient writeFile shows a file selection dialog for entering the place where the downloaded file will be stored. ---

Exactly. The display is blocked and nothing can happen between the server (where the method is executed) and the browser until the end or cancellation of the process. ---

with the older version of the busy.jar you could update the text, with every step… ---

With Servoy 5.2+ this older version would simply not work. ---

I am successfully using the v2.1.4 in Web Client. However, sometimes when a process starts, I just get the usual Servoy “Loading…” indicator instead of the busy screen. Any ideas as to why? This is even for processes that are 30 seconds or longer. ---

Please open a case at the ServoyForge project issue tracker, with precise explanation of your environment (Servoy version, Plugin version, Browser version), and if possible a sample solution.
