Circular Progress Bar ( for a countdown timer )

Question

Ok so I have a countdown timer of 15 seconds that works perfectly fine and I\'d like to make a custom circular progress bar for that timer.

I want to create a full c

Answer 1

For creating custom components, please check Android API Guide. Excerpt for Basic Approach:

1. Extend an existing View class or subclass with your own class.
2. Override some of the methods from the superclass. The superclass methods to override start with 'on', for example, onDraw(), onMeasure(), and onKeyDown(). This is similar to the on... events in Activity or ListActivity that you override for lifecycle and other functionality hooks.
3. Use your new extension class. Once completed, your new extension class can be used in place of the view upon which it was based.

Also, check Todd Davies' Progress Wheel at https://github.com/Todd-Davies/ProgressWheel, this should get you started.

Answer 2

I found this example very good: http://mrigaen.blogspot.it/2013/12/create-circular-progress-bar-in-android.html

So I created my progress bar in this way

<ProgressBar
    android:id="@+id/barTimer"
    style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleHorizontal"
    android:layout_width="200dp"
    android:layout_height="200dp"
    android:layout_centerInParent="true"
    android:progressDrawable="@drawable/circular_progress_bar" />

Then I made a function for the countdown where:

private void startTimer(final int minuti) {
    countDownTimer = new CountDownTimer(60 * minuti * 1000, 500) {
        // 500 means, onTick function will be called at every 500 milliseconds

        @Override
        public void onTick(long leftTimeInMilliseconds) {
            long seconds = leftTimeInMilliseconds / 1000;
            int barVal= (barMax) - ((int)(seconds/60*100)+(int)(seconds%60));
            barTimer.setProgress(barVal);
            textTimer.setText(String.format("%02d", seconds/60) + ":" + String.format("%02d", seconds%60));
            // format the textview to show the easily readable format

        }
        @Override
        public void onFinish() {
            if(textTimer.getText().equals("00:00")){
                textTimer.setText("STOP");          
            }
            else{
                textTimer.setText("2:00");
            }
        }
    }.start();

}

UPDATE

private void startTimer(final int minuti) {
    countDownTimer = new CountDownTimer(60 * minuti * 1000, 500) {
        // 500 means, onTick function will be called at every 500 milliseconds

        @Override
        public void onTick(long leftTimeInMilliseconds) {
            long seconds = leftTimeInMilliseconds / 1000;
            barTimer.setProgress((int)seconds);
            textTimer.setText(String.format("%02d", seconds/60) + ":" + String.format("%02d", seconds%60));
            // format the textview to show the easily readable format

        }
        @Override
        public void onFinish() {
            if(textTimer.getText().equals("00:00")){
                textTimer.setText("STOP"); 
            }
            else{
                textTimer.setText("2:00");
                barTimer.setProgress(60*minuti);
            }
        }
    }.start();

}
