External launch on different thread [message #667631]

I am having issues with output of an external program, launched via LaunchConfigurationDelegate, not being displayed consistently in the Console View. I tried to launch the program via External Tool Configuration dialog and console appears to display the message just fine.

Only difference I saw was that my code was run inside the main thread while launch execution via External Tools ran inside of a separate worker thread.

Is there an example or tutorial of how to run my launch code in a separate thread?

Thanks.

I have a Handler for my command and have the execute() method implemented within it:

@Override
public Object execute(ExecutionEvent event) throws ExecutionException
{
  ...
  ...
  config.launch(ILaunchManager.RUN_MODE, null);
  ...
}

I this where I would create a separate thread to run the launch execution in?
