Hi guys, need your help here...

I've created LabelField inside verticalfieldmanager, the code:

PHP Code:

cox = new VerticalFieldManager(Manager.VERTICAL_SCROLL | Manager.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR);
labelLoading = new LabelField("Please wait..." ,DrawStyle.ELLIPSIS | LabelField.USE_ALL_WIDTH | LabelField.FOCUSABLE | LabelField.HCENTER);
cox.add(labelLoading);
add(cox); 


at another public void, i try to delete the labeLoading, the code:

PHP Code:

public void setStatusOff() {
       statusField.setText("Done");
       delete(labelLoading);
    } 


but i always got error...

cox.delete(labelLoading);

hi Ivanov, thx

still not working....

[hippocamp software]

is it not working at all, or are you getting an exception?

you need to check the field is diplayed before deleting it:

if(labelLoading.isVisible()){
cox.delete(labelLoading);
}

[hrbuckley]

Unless cox is out of scope. You could try:

public void setStatusOff() {
       statusField.setText("Done");
       labelLoading.getManager().delete(labelLoading);
    }

You may also need to ensure that you are executing on the event thread.

[Dougsg38p]

My guess is that your setStatusOff() code is being called from a listener thread, not the UI thread. If that is the case, you will need to wrap your setText() in a Runnable and place it in the event queue by calling invokeLater().

[hrbuckley]

Or you can synchronize on Application.getEventLock():

public void setStatusOff() {
       statusField.setText("Done");
       synchronized(Application.getEventLock()) {
           labelLoading.getManager().delete(labelLoading);
       }
    }

which is generally more efficient.

Which is what I meant.

Thx Doug, your guesses is absolutely right...

and i 've tried to use the code from hrbuckley, and it's working smoooooth...

Thx to you all...

[hrbuckley]

You are most welcome.

Aother question:

How can i add field in "public void setStatusOff() {..." ?

[hrbuckley]

As long as you do it on the event thread, either the synchronized portion in my example, or the run() method of the Runnable in Dougsg38p's suggestion you should be fine, adding it in the normal way.
