Hi All,

Im working on application, in which Im trying to update the GUI through a thread. However, its firing an exception: IllegalStateException. Is there any way to achieve the same stuff?
I also want to know that how can we create & trigger/fire a custom event.
Earlier reply is much appreciable.

Two options I've used that work well. One is to make your application (or whatever class you want to receive the event) implement GlobalEventListener, and then from the thred:

UiApplication app = UiApplication.getUiApplication();
ApplicationManager appMgr = ApplicationManager.getApplicationManager();
appMgr.postGlobalEvent(app.getProcessId() , 0xbc50f865b0f97608L, 0, 0, e, app);

In the receiving class, you MUST override eventOccurred

    public void eventOccurred(long guid,int data0,int data1,Object object0,Object object1)
    {
        if(guid == 0x4e1c549a48dcd405L)        
            {
            m_AppInfo = (AppInfo)object0;
            }

If you just want to pop a Dialog, this is probably easier:

UiApplication.getUiApplication().invokeLater(new Runnable() {
    public void run()
        {
        Dialog.inform(_resources.getString(STR_NO_COVERAGE));
        }
    });
