Installation Progress Bar
My project calls out to a bunch of other installers that have been built during the install phase. As a result, the progress bar shows it's 50% done while each of these sub installers are being executed. It doesn't change/update at all during each of the sub installers. I would think that after some were executed the progress would be more complete (since there are less tasks its calling out too in the install portion of the project)
Is there anyway to make this more accurate, or does anybody have any ideas how to make it more accurate, or am I stuck with a progress bar that doesn't reflect true progress since it's always 50% regardless which sub installer it is installing.
Thanks,
Faded Maximus

You could try using the IA API, which provides some functions for controlling the progress bar. Check the JAVADOC, the com.zerog.ia.api.pub section, you've got there for instance:
void setProgressPercentage(float percentage)
Sets the percentage of the progress bar.
