How to create custom Input Dialog

[Bab]

Hi

This is Bab, I am developing a Map tool.. I got a problem here.. I just want to creat a dailg box and that has to ask me for the name of the map and once I press the Ok button then it must go..I did this one using two ways.
1-> JOptionPane.showInputDailog()
2-> JFace Input Dialog

In the first one ,I am not able to control the window.. Actually the dialog has to appear only in one condition.. But once it enters to the loop then for every time it is asking for the input data even though it comes out from the loop(My input method is based on onmouseclick())

if I use the second one it is showing an error like "Invalid access to thread"

My requirement..

Create a dailog that should not effect my input window..

Try this code , it is a input dilaog in jface

InputDialog dialog = new InputDialog(parent.getShell(),"Dialog Title","Dialog Message",null , null);
dialog.open();

The "invalid access to threads" is usually that you try to update the UI directly.

Put your update in code similar to the following:

new Thread(new Runnable() {
      public void run() {
         while (true) {
            try { Thread.sleep(1000); } catch (Exception e) { }
            Display.getDefault().asyncExec(new Runnable() {
               public void run() {
                  ... do any work that updates the screen ...
               }
            }
         }
      }
   }).start();
