I have been looking for a way to show the progress of a long-running process in the Web Client. Now I found a number of posts about this issue, but none of them are working as the Web Client seems only to be refreshed when the method finishes (at least, that is my conclusion). I noticed the new release of the busy plugin, but I would really like to solve it a bit different if possible.
What I want to achieve is a text area or HTML area which is displayed as some kind of log and updated everytime an iterate action within that method finishes (whether succesful or not). I tried the function application.updateUI() after every update of that log but this seems to have no effect at all.
I cannot imagine something like this cannot be achieved. Am I missing something obvious here?
