Hi,

I am trying to put a GUI on an mp3 processing program, and I have
moving the IO methods to a seperate thread, although the gui hangs
when I press Search, (it searches and analyzes mp3's a in folder).

I've heard about invokeLater(runnable)- where do I use this?

(My IO class implents Runnable)

cheers, evgenii

In your code. The code you did not post. Here's the deal:

1. You post the relevant code.

2. We tell you where to put the required call.

What sarcasm do you mean? Post the code. Do you really think it is
unnecessarily provocative to say "Let's move ahead and solve your problem"?

You know, in a situation like this, you could read the newsgroup until you
understand how it works, before making your first post. In fact, that is
the universally recommended advice for newbies.

Look up SwingWorker on www.java.sun.com for some examples or google
for SwingWorker.

You use the stuff when I call a longer running task from the GUI. It
is called from the GUI-Thread (i.e in the routine that handels a
"Click" event).
