In RCP you can use Jobs and the ProgressView and/or a ProgressMonitorDialog to run background tasks. But if you want to embed a progress bar, have a look at org.eclipse.jface.wizard.ProgressMonitorPart.

We pointed you to code. What did you try? Did it work? What environment are you trying to host the progress bar in?

See http://wiki.eclipse.org/FAQ_How_do_I_find_a_particular_class_from_an_Eclipse_plug-in%3F to make sure you can see all the source code, and check for uses of that class.
