SwingWorker done() is called BEFORE process() when publish() used

Question

I'm using SwingWorker to build a list of files by recursively searching a directory. As a file is found I call publish(file). In my process() method I add the file(s) to a list model, which updates a JList. I also have a PropertyChangeListener attached to the SwingWorker so I know when its done. The listener calls listModel.getSize() when done, so I can determine wheter to enable a 'Clear List' button. When only a few files are found, SwingWorker is done() before process() has added the files to the model, so the size is 0 and the button is not enabled.
Mu question is how can I get SwingWorker to call process() before calling done()?
Thanks

Answer 1

Mu question is how can I get SwingWorker to call
process() before calling done()?I have run into the same problem. It's ugly. The least Java could do is offer a flush() method. At best, they'd fix this problem and flush any publish()ed objects before calling done(). I've worked around it for now with a hack. I simply publish a null to signal completion in doInBackground(). I don't even override done() any more. Of course, I'm assuming publish() order is maintained (evidence so far supports this assumption).
The only other option I'm aware of is invokeLater().
