When starting a web application in the debugger using the 'Debug -> Start Session -> Run in Debugger' action, the IDE freezes for some time, and no progress dialog is visible. This is because starting the debugger happends in the AWT thread, see the attached thread dumps.
Created attachment 12733 [details] Two thread dumps, look at the AWT event queue
Yes, I know about it, it's on my task list. Thought this can be solved after feature freeze.
Someone should evaluate if it is OK to declare StartAction in debugger as sunchronous. Maybe it is OK but then you can't block AWT thread with sleep().
Started task in new thread.
