A variation of the above answer

It's an easy and replicable way to do...

//This code goes inside your button action   
DialogWait wait = new DialogWait();

SwingWorker mySwingWorker = new SwingWorker() {

    @Override
    protected Void doInBackground() throws Exception {

        //Here you put your long-running process...

        wait.close();
        return null;
    }
};

mySwingWorker.execute();
wait.makeWait("Test", evt);
//end


//Create this class on your project
class DialogWait {

private JDialog dialog;

public void makeWait(String msg, ActionEvent evt) {

    Window win = SwingUtilities.getWindowAncestor((AbstractButton) evt.getSource());
    dialog = new JDialog(win, msg, Dialog.ModalityType.APPLICATION_MODAL);

    JProgressBar progressBar = new JProgressBar();
    progressBar.setIndeterminate(true);
    JPanel panel = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
    panel.add(progressBar, BorderLayout.CENTER);
    panel.add(new JLabel("Please wait......."), BorderLayout.PAGE_START);
    dialog.add(panel);
    dialog.pack();
    dialog.setLocationRelativeTo(win);
       dialog.setVisible(true);
   }

   public void close() {
       dialog.dispose();
   }
}
