What does the 'indeterminate' mean in ProgressDialog?
Maybe my English is poor but I really cannot figure out what the "indeterminate" means in this context:
Android Development → ProgressDialog.isIndeterminate()
Solution 1:
It means the "loading amount" is not measured.
Solution 2:
From wiktionary: Indeterminate: Not accurately determined or determinable. It basically just means you're unsure how long the action will take so you cannot say for example something is 50% done.
This normally just means the progress will be displayed as a constantly moving loading bar rather than a percentage or the like.
