Description Michael Valenta CLA 2003-02-27 13:48:48 EST
It is possible that the validateSave/Edit is invoked from a non-UI thread. This 
means that implementors of the hook must use Display#syncExec to peform any UI 
operations. This requirement should be reflected in the doc.
Comment 1 Michael Valenta CLA 2003-02-27 13:53:27 EST
Also, it should be documented that a progress monitor can NOT be opened inside 
a validateSave/Edit because, if another one is open already, deadlock will 
occur.
Comment 2 Michael Valenta CLA 2003-04-03 19:24:11 EST
This was documented in 2.1
