how to override "cancel operation" in "progress bar"

Hi,

I am trying to have a functionality in my eclipse desktop such that based on one boolean I can stop/cancel all other processes invoked.

To be more specific, I want to use the functionality in the eclipse framework, the functionality where we can click at the red button showing next to the name of the process.

Upon click of the button, the process is stopped.

I want to do the same thing.

To explain it more specifically: you know the red button in the progress there are a list of processes and a red button next to them, the way we can stop that process by clicking at the red square button, yes I wan to override that button's functionality.

Please let me know,

Thank You!

Reading about SwingWorker is a good starting point.

The answer I was kinda looking for is as follows:

IJobManager jobMan = Platform.getJobManager();
jobMan.cancel(STRING_NAME_OF_JOB);

I am interested in discussing SWT/JFace stuff, not the archaic AWT/Swing stuff, Please direct me to the apprpriate place.

Thanks anyway!
