If I try with Thread I get SWTException because I accessing to UI-thread

Is there any way to do this?

You need to package them up into the same Runnable, and use Display.syncExec() or Display.asyncExec() to get it run in the UI thread. (The first will block until it's done; the second will run in the background.)

There's an example of this at http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/os-jface3 /#listing10 in Listing 10. Also, have a look at the SWT information at http://help.eclipse.org/help31/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse. platform.doc.isv/guide/swt_threading.htm
