Hello

Does SWT work correct when I do longer operations in the main/ui thread?
I do not care that the UI is not responsive when the long operation is running.
After the operation finished and after Display.readAndDispatch() runs again, can I expect a normal working SWT UI?
If not can you please point me to where this is specified or documented?

Thanks
