Andrew Grieve commented on CB-622:
----------------------------------

Again, looking really good Brion! Sorry it took me a while to look again, but I should be able to give you quick turn-around times going forward :)

Some more comments:
-Use a HashSet for abortTriggered instead of a map
-Make the AbortException class static and put it at the class level instead of nested in a function
-Set the total and lengthComputable fields for download by looking for the "Content-Length" response header.
-Tabs vs spaces has been an ongoing issue for our codebase because we have no checks in place. You've fallen victim to using both within your changes as well. Could you do a replace-all for tabs and change them to 4 spaces?

It would be really great if you could update the mobile-spec FileTransfer tests so that it checks that progress events are firing and also add a test that ensures that abort works. It's fine that these tests will fail on non-Android platforms. This should come before an iOS implementation.

When you're ready for this to be merged, please file pull requests for them through github. I don't think we need to wait on iOS before starting these merges, but mobile-spec tests would be good. 

Bonus points if you could clean up your commit log before requesting a merge. Specifically, splitting up abort vs progress events into distinct commits, and beefing up commit descriptions so that one doesn't need to look at the diff to know what the commit changed. If you can't figure out the git magic though, we would, of course, still love to accept your patch :)

> The FileTransfer upload and download interface seems to provide no way to monitor progress of the upload/download, other than waiting for the entire transfer to complete or fail.
> Being able to pass another callback for progress monitoring could be a useful interface, this might get called with a byte count or something.
