Hi,

So, which version of NetBeans are you using?

The behaviour was changed in 6.3, see "Interruption of tasks" at http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/javadoc/org-openide-util/org/openide/util/RequestProcessor.html

HTH,
Antonio

Hallo,

I have implemented some long running processes with usage of RequestProcessor 
and
ProgressHandle. I want to be able to cancel the processes via UI, so I use

requestProcessor = new RequestProcessor("ProcessData",1, true);

to create cancelable tasks:

RequestProcessor.Task task = requestProcessor.create(runnable);
and

  ProgressHandleFactory.createHandle("blablabla", task);

to create the ProgressHandle.

In the runnable I try to detect the cancelation by

  if (Thread.interrupted ())

as explained here:

https://netbeans.org/download/5_5/org-openide-util/org/openide/util/
RequestProcessor.html

but no interruption is detected if I press the cancel button in the progress-ui 
after pressing
the "yes" button in the message window to allow cancelation.

I have also found

https://rubenlaguna.com/post/2010-01-18-cancellable-tasks-and-progress-indicators-netbeans-platform/

with the suggestion to use

Thread.sleep(0) (or any other blocking operation) inside the run() which should 
result in
throwing an InterruptedException which I can catch. But also this exception is 
never thrown
if I press the cancel button.

Some explaination about fireing of InterruptedException I have found here:

https://dzone.com/articles/interruptedexception-and

Any ideas?

best regards
Oliver
