WPF C# BackgroundWorker use for a method

Question

I have a class Population that contains A method Evolve wich iterate until int variable generationsNumber < population.Size. I want to avoid the main window to tell "NotResponding" and to update a progressbar. I want to use BackgroundWorker class. The problem is that I don't know how to notify the ProgressChanged that value of generationsNumber has changed. Thank you! Pracicaly:

/////////////
MainWindow.cs
/////////////

void m_oWorker_ProgressChanged(object sender, ProgressChangedEventArgs e)
{
    Population p=new Population()
    ...
    p.Evolve();
    //Where to call ReportProgress? I cannot acces local variable generationsNumber that is declared in Evolve method
}

Call ReportProgress() on the BackgroundWorker instance.
