When the IDE communicates with the application server (starting/stopping, deploying, redeploying, ...) the progress bar displayed stops frequently for an undefined amount of time. This is not a real progress indication in fact. This just indicates how the steps of the action are processed one after the other. The progress bar must be indicating all the time that the action is in progress.
setting target to 4.1 (not critical for 40)
Simple plugin effort would replace this progress bar with ant-based feed back output tab.
siplified plugin did not make it into 4.1, moving out again
This has been fixed on the NbFeature1135 branch and merged to trunk. Old progess dialog has been removed. New progress api is now used to show an indefinite progress bar.
Verified. Looks good. Thanks.
