[news.eclipse.tools.cdt] How to refresh data model with changes?

[mamado+eclipse@xxxxxxxxx (Mamado )]

Hello,

I am using CDT to add support of a new language in Eclipse, so I am using 
a contributed model builder to fill some IContributedCElements under the 
translation unit.

The problem is that there is a lengthy process that needs to be performed 
once on the project while opening and I need to do that before my model 
builder is called. If I put that initialization code in the model builder 
it blocks the GUI until done. If I run it in a job and display a nice 
progress to the user the model builder can't return any correct data.

I like the usability of the CDT outline view where it shows "Pending ..." 
until data is ready, so I extended CView and added a content provider that 
checks if the translation unit is open or not and display "Pending ...", 
the content provider also has a listener on the CModel changes, and tries 
to refresh the tree viewer for any change.

The problem is that the isOpenned state never changes.

Is the problem that I want to tell the CModel to refresh itself and update 
its internal "info" objects thus changing the status of isOpen and by 
consequence refresh all the views with listeners on it. Or is it an issue 
that I have old data and I need to do setInput again?

I am sure that I have something missing, or I am not doing the right 
thing, but it is very hard to look for documentation on this. 

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Mamado.
