Hi, I'm new SWT and GUI programming so forgive me if this should be
obvious. I've read through the SWT Threading issue doc but I'm still having
problems allowing my worker thread to communicate with my Shell.

http://www.eclipse.org/documentation/html/plugins/org.eclips e.platform.doc.i
sv/doc/guide/swt_threading.htm

I've got a simple shell application that spawns a worker thread (inner
class) . I want the worker thread to update the progress bar on the shell as
it goes. I've tried calling Display.getCurrent().asyncExec( ) from the
worker thread to update the progress bar but my worker thread can not
access the Display (UI-thread I guess). Any advice or example code would be
great.
Thanks,

Patrick
