How to know how much percentage file uploaded to server in android


I am using this code to upload file from my android to a server but I dont know how much of my file is uploaded( for example 30MB from 100MB)! Is there any way?

String url = "http://yourserver";
File file = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath(),
    "yourfile");
try {
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();

HttpPost httppost = new HttpPost(url);

InputStreamEntity reqEntity = new InputStreamEntity(
        new FileInputStream(file), -1);
reqEntity.setContentType("binary/octet-stream");
reqEntity.setChunked(true); // Send in multiple parts if needed
httppost.setEntity(reqEntity);
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httppost);
//Do something with response...

} catch (Exception e) {
// show error
}

Solution
