New dialog in Job [message #443685]

Hi!

I am desperatly trying to do the following:

I need to display progress to the user, so I run a Job. During the Job
however the user needs to be prompted for some information (which depends on
stuff the Job did up to thst point).
But whatever I try, on opening the Dialog (extends jface Dialog) I get an
Illegal Thread Access error.
So my question is: What Shell object to I need to give to the constructor
that this error will not come up?

Regards
Johannes

Hello,

same thing happens when opening a MessageDialog or sth. else...

Solution:

Display.getDefault().asyncExec(new Runnable(){
public void run() {
MessageDialog.openError(null, "Title", "Message");
}
});

Though I needed to use syncExec on the
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getDisplay() this worked perfectly.

Thanks a lot!
