ArcGIS Geoprocessing Service results updates as porgress

[MohammadIshfaq]

Greetings all,
I am trying to run a long (processing multiple objects in a batch mode) and heavy processing (raster manipulation) operation through ArcGIS Geoprocessing Service. It is working fine in execute synchronous or asynchronous operation, however, I would like to get the status update messages while geoprocessor is executing and show them as progress using ArcGIS silverlight or ArcGIS flex client.

I would appreciate if anyone can provide a clue, any literature or POC in this regard. In advance, I thank you all for your time and support.

Mohammad,

   I don't have a full example but if you look at the documentation then you will see that you can add an event listener for STATUS_UPDATE and get the JobInfo

Docs:
https://developers.arcgis.com/en/flex/api-reference/com/esri/ags/events/GeoprocessorEvent.html

geoprocessTask.addEventListener(GeoprocessorEvent.STATUS_UPDATE, statusUpdateHandler);

And get the JobInfo from that event to get the jobStatus and messages

Docs:
https://developers.arcgis.com/en/flex/api-reference/com/esri/ags/tasks/supportClasses/JobInfo.html
