IProgressMonitor: progress is not shown in statusLine [message #484483]

Hi All,

Desire:

I wrote a personalized editor.
When the user "saves" I get called on "doSave" with a progress monitor.
I want to update the monitor so it will show stuff on the status line. (like when building, or synchronizing with SVN and it has that nice progress bar of things happening in the backgrounf)

a couple of Problems:

i my work on a separate thread. then i get an SWT thread access error that i'm trying to access the status Line not from the gui thread.
so I wrapped the use of the monitor in asynchExec... but now nothing shows on my status line
I even tried for testing to remove my separate thread and do it all on the main thread but the status line progress does not show.

any help is appreciated! thank you
