    text
    copied!<p>I am implementing a simple alert view with activity indicator to show to the user while the app is performing the restore of the database. Everything is fine except that I can't see the alert view, unless I comment out the automatic dismiss line (last one here).</p> <p>Ok, the restore of the database is quite quick, but still I would expect to see it even if for an instant, no? I can see the screen get's a little darker during animation but that's all. I also tried putting a for loop to extend the time, the time extends but still no alert view.</p> <p>There is nothing wrong in the way the alert view is called, since if I comment the dismiss, I can see it...only forever. Anyone has an idea here? </p> <p><strong>Before anyone says it, I tried changing the delegate of the alertView to <code>self</code> as posted <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7872449/cant-set-uialertview-events">here</a>, but it didn't help.</strong></p> <pre><code>// First we prepare the activity indicator view to show progress indicator UIActivityIndicatorView * activityView = [[UIActivityIndicatorView alloc] initWithActivityIndicatorStyle:UIActivityIndicatorViewStyleWhiteLarge]; [activityView setFrame:CGRectMake(121.0f, 50.0f, 37.0f, 37.0f)]; [activityView startAnimating]; // Then we put it in an alert view UIAlertView *alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Loading" message:nil delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:nil otherButtonTitles:nil]; [alertView addSubview:activityView]; [alertView show]; // Finally we operate the restore [[SQLManager sharedSQL] restoreDatabase:[restoreDatabaseURL path]]; // And we can dismiss the alert view with the progress indicator [alertView dismissWithClickedButtonIndex:0 animated:NO]; </code></pre>
