How to animate the drawing of arc in android
<p>I am new to Android and I am using the drawArc function to show the progress of some task to the user but now I want to animate this so that it looks as if it is growing.</p>

<p>I use the following code but not working:</p>

<pre><code>   new Thread(new Runnable() {
    int i=0;
    float startAngle =0;
    float swipeAngle = 40.7f;
    public void run() {
        while (i &lt; swipeAngle) {
            canvas.drawArc(rectF, startAngle, i, false, paint);

            try {
                Thread.sleep(50);
            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
        i++;
    }
}).start();
</code></pre>

<p>Can Someone Please suggest whats wrong in this or Can suggest some other idea to animate.</p>
