[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-16939) OpenShift application creation should not lock the UI while waiting for DNS to propagate

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-16939?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12957815#comment-12957815 ] 

Lincoln Baxter III commented on JBIDE-16939:
--------------------------------------------

As I mentioned in the original description, this occurs simply by completing the OpenShift New Application wizard.

1. In the "OpenShift" view, right click on your account.
2. Select "New" -> "Application"
3. Enter an application name and select the gear type (I used EAP6 and a small gear)
4. Click "Finish"

OpenShift will now create the application and propagate the new DNS entry out to "the internet" - This can take quite some time, anywhere from 5 seconds to 5 minutes.

The dialog remains open until this operation is finished. It is not possible to put this into the background.

Additionally. As I just discovered while attempting to give exact steps. If you take too long to accept the RSA Fingerprint Dialog Box, the Git streaming operation times out and the application fails to import entirely.

I highly doubt this is environment specific, but I use OSX 10.9.2 with Oracle Java 1.7_51 on a 64bit quad core intel i7 with hyper-threading and 16mb of memory.

> After completing the OpenShift -> New Application wizard, the UI locks while Eclipse waits for the OpenShift operation to complete. Many OpenShift operations (including application creation) can take quite a while, and it should be able to be moved to the background, allowing the user to continue working while waiting.
