Eu estou usando thread separado para obter o objeto json do URL. mas o problema é que eu gostaria de mostrar o diálogo de progresso ao obter o resultado. Eu criei um diálogo de progresso e chamei show and dismiss antes e depois da execução do thread. mas o diálogo de progresso não está sendo exibido. aqui está a maneira que eu chamei meu segmento.

    private void getRecordsByCount(final String data) {
        try {
            // btnSelectall.setText(" ");
            int color=Color.BLACK;
            showProgressDialog();
            tableLayoutGrid.removeAllViews();
            final String[] details = data.split("_");
            SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
            String formattedDate = df.format(new Date());
            String url = ipaddress + "/GrantLeavesList?Companyid=" + user_info.get("CompanyId") + "&divisionid=" + details[3] + "&userid=" + user_info.get("userid") + "&roleid="
                    + user_info.get("RoleId") + "&Employeeid=" + user_info.get("EmployeeId") + "&leavetypeid=" + staticDetails.get(details[0]) + "&strStatus=" + staticDetails.get(details[1])
                    + "&type=" + staticDetails.get(details[2]) + "&Date=" + formattedDate;
            JsonThread thread = new JsonThread(url);
            thread.start();
            // thread.setPriority(Thread.MAX_PRIORITY);
            thread.join();
