I copied and slightly modified the code from
http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/SWT-JFace-Eclipse/Displayana nimatedGIF.htm
to write my own animation thread. The modifications were necessary
because the animated GIF is to be displayed in a table cell. Hence, I
essentially implemented my own OwnerDrawLabelProvider.
However, I'm having serious issues finding the right GC for the thread
to draw to. Generally one implements draw(Event, Object) and uses the
event's GC to draw to. In my case this fails because I need to start a
dedicated thread from within paint() and by the time its run method
draws the image to the GC the GC is reset/empty.
I tried creating my own GC inside the thread's constructor: this.gc =
new GC(event.gc.getDevice());. This seemed to work at first and while
debugging the thread's run method never failed to draw to this GC.
However, once I step out of the debugger it fails miserably:
Sat Jan 9 22:11:57 192.168.1.6.local.home java[25387] <Error>:
CGContextConcatCTM: invalid context 0x0
2010-01-09 22:12:18.356 java[25387:17b03] It does not make sense to draw
an image when [NSGraphicsContext currentContext] is nil. This is a
programming error. Break on _NSWarnForDrawingImageWithNoCurrentContext
to debug. This will be logged only once. This may break in the future.
Sat Jan 9 22:12:41 192.168.1.6.local.home java[25387] <Error>:
CGContextConcatCTM: invalid context 0x0
I'm pretty much at my wits end and I would very much appreciated to get
some hints as for how to deal with this.

Marcel
