[mylyn-integrators] changing attgributes on page

[Larry Edelstein <ledelstein@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

My attribute changes are disappearing!   I'm not sure how I should implement the behavior that I want.  I have a TaskDataModelListener whose attributeChanged(TaskAttribute) method is called when the user modifies an attribute in my task editor page.  My listener needs to update other attributes that depend on the one that changed.  

What I'm unsure of is the threading.  Should I call editorPage.getModel().attributeChanged(TaskAttribute) in the same execution thread?  Should I call editorPage.refreshFormContent() in that same thread?  If I do them all in the same thread, I get an SWT Exception (widget is disposed).  But when I perform them in a separate thread, I lose the changes I make in the listener.

Ideas?
