Astreams_NewData memory leak

[Mickster]

Hey Guys,
I'm having an issue with my code and it's that memory is building up at a rate of 2mb every 5 to 10 minutes, in regular intervals.

I've narrowed it down to the 'Astreams_NewData' sub routine that handles receiving data over bluetooth.

The code in the subroutine doesn't seem as though it would cause the issues, does anyone have any ideas?

Sub AStreams_NewData (Buffer() As Byte)

   Dim BlueToothString As String
   Dim CharacterFloat As Float
   
   BlueToothString = BytesToString(Buffer, 0, Buffer.Length, "UTF8")
   CleanBlueToothCommand = CleanBlueToothCommand &   BlueToothString   
   
   If CleanBlueToothCommand.Length > 20 Then CleanBlueToothCommand = ""

   

End Sub

I believe this is because Strings are immutable.
I do not understand completely, but you should look at these two links to find the solution:
String - Basic4android Wiki
StringBuilder - Basic4android Wiki

Do you get an out of memory error?
