Objective C: Downloading File With Progress Bar [duplicate]

Using AFNetworking,

here progress is the UIProgressview

#import <AFNetworking/AFNetworking.h>//add to the header of class

-(void)downloadShowingProgress
{
   progress.progress = 0.0;

    currentURL=@"http://www.selab.isti.cnr.it/ws-mate/example.pdf";


    NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:currentURL]];
    AFURLConnectionOperation *operation =   [[AFHTTPRequestOperation alloc] initWithRequest:request];

    NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
    NSString *filePath = [[paths objectAtIndex:0] stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"MY_FILENAME_WITH_EXTENTION.pdf"];
    operation.outputStream = [NSOutputStream outputStreamToFileAtPath:filePath append:NO];

    [operation setDownloadProgressBlock:^(NSUInteger bytesRead, NSUInteger totalBytesRead, NSUInteger totalBytesExpectedToRead) {
        progress.progress = (float)totalBytesRead / totalBytesExpectedToRead;

    }];

    [operation setCompletionBlock:^{
        NSLog(@"downloadComplete!");

    }];
    [operation start];

}

Using NSURLConnection

-(void)downloadWithNsurlconnection
{

    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:currentURL];
    NSURLRequest *theRequest = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:url         cachePolicy:NSURLRequestReloadIgnoringLocalCacheData timeoutInterval:60];
    receivedData = [[NSMutableData alloc] initWithLength:0];
    NSURLConnection * connection = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequest:theRequest delegate:self     startImmediately:YES];


}


- (void) connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveResponse:(NSURLResponse *)response {
    [UIApplication sharedApplication].networkActivityIndicatorVisible = YES;
    progress.hidden = NO;
    [receivedData setLength:0];
    expectedBytes = [response expectedContentLength];
}

- (void) connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveData:(NSData *)data {
    [receivedData appendData:data];
    float progressive = (float)[receivedData length] / (float)expectedBytes;
    [progress setProgress:progressive];


}

- (void) connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didFailWithError:(NSError *)error {
    [UIApplication sharedApplication].networkActivityIndicatorVisible = NO;

}

- (NSCachedURLResponse *) connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection willCacheResponse:    (NSCachedURLResponse *)cachedResponse {
    return nil;
}

- (void) connectionDidFinishLoading:(NSURLConnection *)connection {
    NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);

    NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
    NSString *pdfPath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:[currentURL stringByAppendingString:@".mp3"]];
    NSLog(@"Succeeded! Received %d bytes of data",[receivedData length]);
    [UIApplication sharedApplication].networkActivityIndicatorVisible = NO;
    [receivedData writeToFile:pdfPath atomically:YES];
    progress.hidden = YES;
}
