Hello guyz,
I would like to create a modal Job, that is to say :
* The job need to run in a worker thread as any other job
* I only need the "progress" job dialog to be modal, thus not allowing the user to interact with the workbench until the job has finished
Simple need, but looks hard to implement.
I was considering implementing a UIJob wrapper which would fire a regular job, listens for completion, and prevents user actions while dispatching UI events...
But I think if I dispatch UI events the user will be able to interact with the workbench (so this will be helpless) and if I do not dispatch the UI will look like "frozen", and I definitly don't want this either.
Any idea ?
Thanks,
Christophe

Hello
Maybe this approach will help? (It's just a quick idea)
