Hi,

could someone explain me what is the best way to run long running tasks?

There are few options:

  1. the IProgressService with its:

    • busyCursorWhile(IRunnableWithProgress runnable)
    • run(boolean fork, boolean cancelable, IRunnableWithProgress runnable)
    • showInDialog(Shell shell, Job job)

  2. the IWorkbenchWindow.run(boolean fork, boolean cancelable, IRunnableWithProgress runnable)
  3. the Jobs API with its own progress UI

I'm little confused what to select.
