Hello,
I have a strange problem on threading, at least I guess it is because of
threading. In an Eclipse action, I am calling a method which shows (for
saving of a project)swing gui for asking "are you sure to overwrite "
etc and a progress bar for showing the status of saving. After showing
the window, it does not let the interaction with the window. I can not
answer as "yes" or "no" for example.
I tried to put the method call which shows swing gui in
display.asynchExec thinking it could help, but no help.
Display.asyncExec (new Runnable () {
public void run () { //this method shows swing gui and
progressdialog
myProject.save(filepath);
}
});
By the way, the save method also uses threads itself.(not sure if it is
related..)
What can I do, I am struggling with it since yesterday, but could not
find any solution.
Any help is appreciated,
Thanks
Sunay

Did you try putting it in a separate thread and running it *without*
Display.syncExec/Display.asyncExec? I have never tried running a Swing
GUI from SWT, but I have tried the other way around, and I always have
to put it in a separate thread or otherwise it will block the Swing
event thread from continuing. If you try that and it doesn't work, I'll
experiment myself and try to help.
