How to trigger a dialogue box with a SwingWorker (External Class)

I've been trying to familiarize myself with the use of SwingWorkers i开发者_开发技巧n Java. Is it possible to trigger a dialogue box to display from the GUI within a SwingWorker's process method?

within a SwingWorker's process method

If you mean:

a) inside doInBackground(),

public Boolean doInBackground() {

  // caught exception half way e.g. login auth fail

  // 'push' into GUI layer (EDT)
  String text = "Your error here";
  publish(text);

  Boolean result = Boolean.TRUE;

  // continue with remaining process

  return result;
}

protected void process(List<Object> chunks) {
  String[] message = chunks.toArray(new String[chunks.size()]);

  // prompt user with dialog box
  JDialogBox.showMessageDialog(window, message);
}

b) inside done(),

protected void done() {
  // prompt user with dialog box
  String message;
  try {
    message = get();
  } catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
  }
  JDialogBox.showMessageDialog(window, message);
}

c) or outside get()?

SwingWorker sw = new SwingWorker() {.....;
sw.execute();

// some time later

final String message;
try {
  message = sw.get();
} catch (Exception e) {
  e.printStackTrace();
}

Runnable edt = new Runnable() {

  public void run() {
    JDialogBox.showMessageDialog(window, message);
  }
}

java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater(edt);

yes is that possible by implements PropertyChangeListener(), there are two implementations (to avoids wrong implementations of methods)

import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.Toolkit;
import java.awt.Window;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import java.beans.PropertyChangeEvent;
import java.beans.PropertyChangeListener;

import javax.swing.*;

public class TestProgressBar {

    private static void createAndShowUI() {
        JFrame frame = new JFrame("TestProgressBar");
        frame.getContentPane().add(new TestPBGui().getMainPanel());
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        frame.pack();
        frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
        frame.setVisible(true);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
