    Default Monitoring thread for progress bar.

    hi everyone,
    i am developing an application that might require a progress bar. is it possible to monitor the thread process of the whole application and automatically pop up a progress bar dialog whenever system becomes busy?

    Take a look at javax.swing.ProgressMonitor (and maybe SwingWorker)
    How to Use Progress Bars (The Java™ Tutorials > Creating a GUI With JFC/Swing > Using Swing Components)
    Worker Threads and SwingWorker (The Java™ Tutorials > Creating a GUI With JFC/Swing > Concurrency in Swing)

    If you use a SwingWorker, be aware that a recently introduced bug resulted in the undesired behavior that all SwingWorkers' doInBackground tasks run on the same thread, so only one can execute at a time.
