Description Beat Hörmann CLA 2004-11-04 08:02:52 EST 
The public RCP-API does not support any progress displaying for asynchronous 
jobs if somebody decides to create his own window content by overriding 
WorkbenchAdvisor's createWindowContents method.

It seems that there is a strong need for decoupling at least the 
classes "ProgressRegion", "WorkbenchWindow", "ProgressMonitorFocusJob" (strong 
dependency through the call to "ProgressManagerUtil.animateDown") 
and "ErrorNotificationDialog" (strong dependency through the call to 
both "ProgressManagerUtil.animateDown" and "ProgressManagerUtil.animateUp").

Configuring the workbench with "setShowProgressIndicator(false)" and at the 
same time letting the workbench create its default window contents, leads to 
the same effect. Hence, not only the progress indication on the status line is 
turned off but also there are no dialogs from ProgressMonitorFocusJob showing 
up anymore.
