    Default JProgressBar not showing

    Hello,
    I am new to java and I made a app that installs Tic-tac-toe on your computer and when it is supposed to display a progress bar it doesn't.
    My code is:
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.lang.*;
    import java.util.*;
    import java.io.*;
    import java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit;
     
    public class Installer {
     
        JFrame frame = new JFrame("Installer");
        JLabel dir = new JLabel();
        JPanel dirPanel = new JPanel();
        JButton selectButton = new JButton("Browse");
        JButton okButton = new JButton("Confirm");
        JPanel okPanel = new JPanel();
        JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser(System.getProperty("user.home") + "//Downloads");
        String directoryRaw;
        String directory; 
        JProgressBar loading = new JProgressBar(0, 100);
        JFrame frame2 = new JFrame("Installing...");
     
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            Installer m = new Installer();
            m.frame.setSize(500, 120);
            m.frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
            m.frame.setVisible(true);
            m.dir.setText("Select A Directory:       ");
            m.dirPanel.add(m.dir);
            m.dirPanel.add(m.selectButton);
            m.okButton.setEnabled(false);
            m.frame.add(m.dirPanel, BorderLayout.NORTH);
            m.okPanel.add(m.okButton);
            m.frame.add(m.okPanel, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
            m.fc.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY);
            m.selectButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
     
                // Override the actionPerformed() method
                public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
                    //Handle open button action.
                    if (e.getSource() == m.selectButton) {
                        int returnVal = m.fc.showOpenDialog(null);
     
                        if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
                            File file = m.fc.getSelectedFile();
                            //This is where a real application would open the file.
                            m.directoryRaw = file.getAbsolutePath();
                            System.out.println(m.directoryRaw);
                            m.dir.setText(file.getAbsolutePath() + "       ");

    Default Re: JProgressBar not showing

    Take a look at the tutorial: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutor.../progress.html
    It has example code that shows how to use a ProgressBar
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
