Yes, but in Eclipse the decision is based on a timer and it doesn't need support from a ProgressMonitor interface or the monitored service.

What about users who don't need progress monitoring? -- Pozdrawiam / Best Regards Rafal Krupinski --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
