I have gone through the issue. There are two projects we have created. One is 
based on SWT and other one is based on Swing. Please let me know on which 
project we have to fix the issue. 

Thanks & Regrads

The problem exists in the SWT version. The Swing version doesn't do anything 
yet. I am unsure if we are even going to continue developing it.

Can you please write me the cases how I can activate the download data? Means 
how can I come to that phase where the problem arise.

Regards

The program will pause/be unusable in the following locations:
- PlotThread class in AnalyzerUI.java - The plotting library used hangs when 
plotting data (not sure why)
- StockThread class in AnalyzerUI.java - If we have to resort to downloading 
the data from the server, then it will be quite a while before data is 
available to be used in any screening operations.

Added block on Issue #21 "Use Swing for the QuantDesk_UI (Get rid off SWT)": 
there's no sense to implement it in SWT just before transition to Swing.

Priority-Critical -> Priority-Medium

In r129 the progress bar issue is mostly resolved. The following items remain:

* refactor the progress bar. Currently it's "passive": it provides
methods to reporting the status to any part of the app code. As a
result the caller code should care about time tracking and message
formatting. If the progress bar could "register" the status info
providers, then the "duplication of efforts" could be eliminated. For
example the progress bar would track time for each process and the
logics of the task would not be "diluted" with time tracking code;

* write the utility method for converting "3675 seconds" to "1 h 1
min 15 sec" and use it in the status bar messages.

Note: Currently Issue 3 "Refactor to separate DataService from actual UI" is 
not yet resolved. Resolving Issue 3 will (most probably) affect the progress 
bar, but that's the scope of Issue 3.
