0.9.2 does not work well on Windows DOS or Cygwin ... #109

Closed ghost closed 1 year ago

First, progressbars and mulitbars works very well on Linux terminals in general.

I realize a Windows OS is challenging. I also realize you don't have access to a Windows OS. However, I wanted to make sure folks know not to expect this to work on Windows terminals.

The simple test uses multi-bars.

It does this using Cygwin:

Test2   1% [=>                                                                                                                 ]   2/200 (0:00:00 / 0:00:08)
Test1   1% [=>                                                                                                                 ]   1/100 (0:00:01 / 0:01:45)
Test2   1% [=>                                                                                                                 ]   3/200 (0:00:01 / 0:01:17) ←
Test2   2% [==>                                                                                                                ]   4/200 (0:00:02 / 0:01:41) ←

It does this using cmd.exe (DOS box):


>java -jar vfy-snippet.jar
Test2   6% [==>                                  ]  13/200 (0:00:12 / 0:02:52)

I get the same with both cmd and Powershell on Win 7. Progress is printed vertically for every horisontal step.

I want to start my application with a bat-file, but Progressbar does act as expected compared to when I run the application inside my IDE.

See #100 : Progressbar is known to be broken on Cygwin / cmd / Powershell when using multiple bars. Multiple bars are only working under Linux/Mac/WSL.
