title: Updating visual components in android embarcadero c++builder
body: <p>I need to update several visual components in my app during a timeconsuming function, instead my app seems to hang during this function call, rather than update the visual components on the screen. When the function exit, I see only the last changes to the components. </p>
  
  <p>Is there a simple way to do the updates, or do I need to create a parallel process and have a 'timer' to read the data simultaniously (using semaphores) and present them in the timer call ?</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions ?</p>
