thread and run loop

In my saving method for my document, i decided to offload all the work to a thread so that the progress dialog that is displayed gets updated.

Here is what i do to achieve this

start secondary thread
while (!doneSaving)
[[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] runUntilDate: [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSinceNow: 0.1]];


and then resume work and return. It seems to work, but i'm not sure this is the way to do it...

is this the correct approach, should i use -run instead of - rununtildate on the runloop?
