c++ Indicator / Loading Wheel

I'm using RAD Studio 4 C++ builder and would like to display an Indicator wheel while my data sources was fetching data from the DB. I know FireMonkey has an Indicator wheel but c++ builder doesn't seem to have such a component.

Does anyone know of a component I could use ?

Solution

  • The TAnimate component is what you are looking for. Find an .avi video that suits your needs, load it into TAnimate, and perform your DB work in a separate thread so TAnimate is not blocked from running.
