Thank you for your support! Your solution is really interesting but the easiest solution is to call
ProcessEvents();
as suggested me by Omari.

Best,
Matteo

Indeed, it work as well without a thread ! the only default of this methode is (if I put it in my exemple) the gui is still lock during the Sleep function which is normal.
Their is howerver many workarround like doing this kind of things :

	void myCallBack(){
		button.Disable(); //Action on GUI
		ProcessEvents();
		for(int e = 0; e <  11; e++){
			progress = e;
			ProcessEvents();
			for(int i = 0; i < 100; i++){
				Sleep(10);
				ProcessEvents();
			}
			//Same as Sleep(1000) but with a better control on GUI (however it wont 'sleep' for
			// 1 second now, but for 1 sec +  100 * (processEvents() Time)
		}
		button.Enable();
		ProcessEvents();
		return;
	}
