Detailed Description

Defines abstract interface from program to the "user". That includes progress indication and user break mechanisms.

The interface to progress indicator represents it as a scale for each range and step can be defined by the program that uses it. The scale can be made "infinite", which means it will grow non-linearly, end of scale will be approached asymptotically at infinite number of steps. In that case value of scale range gives a number of steps corresponding to position at 1/2 of scale. The current position can be either set directly (in a range from current position to maximum scale value), or incremented step by step.

Progress indication mechanism is adapted for convenient usage in hiererchical processes that require indication of progress at several (sub)levels of the process. For that purpose, it is possible to create restricted sub-scope of indication by specifying part of a current scale that is to be used by the subprocess. When subprocess works with progress indicator in the restricted scope, it has the same interface to a scale, while actually it deals only with part of the whole scale.

NOTE: Currently there is no support for concurrent progress indicator that could be useful in multithreaded applications. The main reason for this is that such implementation would be too complex regarding forecasted lack of real need for such support. To support this it would require that ProgressScale keep its own position and take care of incrementing main ProgressIndicator in destructor. This would also require having cross-references between nested instances of ProgressScale, ie. potential problems with memory management. In case of need of concurrent progress indicator two things can be suggested: either creation of single spane with summary number of steps, or usage of infinite scale.

The user break is implemented as virtual function that might return True in case if break signal from the user is obtained.

The derived classes should take care of visualisation of the progress indicator (e.g. show total position at the graphical bar, and/or print all scopes in text mode), and for implementation of user break mechanism (if defined).
