[news.eclipse.platform.swt] SWT and network / socket data?

[Sal Valente <svalente@xxxxxxx>]

I have an SWT program that displays a Label.  Whenever the user selects a
menu item, I want to display something in that label.  Also, the program
is listening for data on a Socket.  Whenever network data arrives, I want
to display it in the Label.

So I've got two Threads.  One is running the SWT main loop:
    while (!shell.isDisposed()) if (!display.readAndDispatch()) display.sleep();

The other is reading and processing data from the network socket. 

I don't think it's a good idea (or at all legal) for the second
Thread to ever call label.setText().  I want to funnel all SWT calls
through a single thread.  Is there a way to do this, or, better
yet, is there a "right" way to do this?  (Is there a way for the network
thread to add events to the end of the queue so that the SWT thread will
get to them in their turn?  Or a way for the network thread to
wake-up the SWT thread?)

Thanks.
