Description Martin Oberhuber CLA 2008-05-19 10:44:56 EDT
Build ID: I20080516-1333 (3.4rc1)

With several plugins installed in Eclipse (see bug 232794 for a list of what I have), choose Help > Software Updates... and in the "Available Software" tab, expand the "http://download.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/updates/3.0" node.

A "Pending..." node appears. Close the dialog and open the Progress View. It shows attached screenshot: The 3rd entry only has a file path as label.

The job should either have a label that explains what it's currently doing; or it should not be a separate Job/Progress at all, but a sub-job / sub-progress.

not sure if this is the UI's label or something happening underneath.  Marking [ui] for now and will investigate for next release.
Comment 3 Susan McCourt CLA 2009-06-09 16:32:16 EDT
I believe this to be a transport issue.  The progress handling is a bit sketchy.  Retitling bug.
See also bug 279309.
Comment 4 Henrik Lindberg CLA 2009-06-09 18:25:17 EDT
Same comment as for Bug 279309 - I think it is an overall area for improvement (not just in transport - which is just the leaf where progress happens to be reported. I think there are things happening en route down to transport regarding monitors and submonitors that is not optimal - and hence some of the subtasks that surface in the UI does look kind of odd.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.

I don't see this behavior in the UI that I test today.
