"Datasource import" progress dialog doesn't explain what it's doing

Created: 23 Sep 07 16:43   Updated: 24 Sep 07 12:51
Component/s: J2EE.EJB3, J2EE.Hibernate

Build: 7,294


 Description  « Hide
At the moment the progress dialog only shows "Discovering data sources to import...".

It might be a good idea to show something like:
"Searching for datasources in Hibernate configuration..."
"Searching for datasources in Spring configuration..."
(or something similar)

An unsuspecting used clicking on "import" may have to wait 20 seconds or so (like in my case) - so at least describe what the process is doing.

In addition, if the number of files to be scanned is known in advance,

  • a more deterministic progress bar could be shown
  • more descriptive progress messages could be shown (like "scanning foo.xml...")
