Android. How do I keep a button displayed as PRESSED until the action created by that button is finished?

by

I used a function like

void setHighlighted(boolean highlight) {
    button.setBackgroundResource( highlight
                                ? R.drawable.bbg_pressed
                                : R.drawable.button_background);
}

where button_background is a selector defined in
button_backgroung.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" >
    <item android:state_pressed="true" android:drawable="@drawable/bbg_pressed"></item>
    <item android:state_focused="true" android:drawable="@drawable/bbg_selected"></item>
    <item android:drawable="@drawable/bbg_normal"></item>
</selector>

That is, this code does not interfere with the pressed state used by the Android framework; instead, it changes the background so that the button looks pressed.
