[news.eclipse.tools] ProgressMonitor in LaunchConfiguration

[Roman Schnider <schnider@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,
I programmatically create new launch configurations for an external program. 
When launching the program, which does some time consuming work, I want to show 
progess in a progress bar.
The method ILaunchConfiguration#launch takes a parameter of type 
IProgressMonitor to set the progress monitor.
I tried using a ProgressMonitorPart and 
StatusLineManager().getProgressMonitor(), but no progress bar shows up.

Any hints what I'm doing wrong?


Thanks.
Roman
