[platform-ui-dev] Progress reporting article

[Stefan Xenos <sxenos@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I've just written an updated article on progress reporting in Eclipse. It has some info on taking advantage of new APIs in Eclipse 4.6 and changes planned for Eclipse 4.7.

https://eclipse.org/articles/Article-Progress-Monitors/article.html

I've also just pushed a change that adds diagnostic logging to SubMonitor. If you enable the following trace options, SubMonitor will spit out a stack trace whenever it detects a probable progress monitoring bug:

org.eclipse.equinox.common/debug=true

org.eclipse.equinox.common/progress_monitors=true

I hope some of you find this useful. :-)
