Hi,
In one of my plug-ins, I save all open files in the background, without getting confirmation from the user with the following command:
Display.getDefault().syncExec(new Thread()
{
public void run()
{
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().saveAllEditors(false);
}
});
It works very well, however to do this, it closes all open dialogs to do this action. For example, let's say that the user invoked a content assist, while trying to decide what to choose from that dialog, my plug-in closes that dialog (since it saves the file). I guess this is due to the fact that I am trying to do the action with the UI thread, and to get a hold to the UI thread, it first closes its current dialog.
Is there a way to overcome this (i.e., delay the save until all active dialogs are closed or save the files in the workbench without forcing to close the active dialogs)?
Thanks,
