Error in Activity.LoadLayout

[dimartinoentertainment]

Hi

Everything has worked fine before Basic4Android v2.7.
Now, when I try to call an activity using CallSubDelayed, the app sometimes crashes with the following error:

sending message to waiting queue (CallSubDelayed - chooseCatSolo)


java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: Object should first be initialized (ImageView).

I've absolutely no idea what causes it. The error often occures when I try to close the activity and then immediately try to call it again.


Thanks in advance!

Please check the unfiltered logs and see whether there is another error message just before this one.

This is the unfiltered output right before the crash.
I see: "Out of memory on a 5139472-byte allocation."
Does it mean that the device has runned out of memory ? Or is this something else ?


Thanks.

It seems like a memory issue. Though it doesn't behave as expected.

Are you loading a very large image?

 

[dimartinoentertainment]

Yes, I've tested some things and it seems indeed that it has to do with loading a large image.

Is there a limit in size or dimension of images ?


Thanks in advance.

 

[Erel]

Large images require a lot of free memory.

 

[dimartinoentertainment]

Just to let you know: I've solved the problem by recyling the large bitmap which I"m loading (by using a Reflector).
My app was using between 90%-100% of the available memory. By recyling all the large bitmaps each time the activity closes, the used memory has been reduced to an average of 65%.

I have the problem with ver3 It away PAUSE at
Activity.LoadLayout("Main")
I tried with simple button CLICK to display a message or to a label.
the program was run on tablet connected to PC with window 7-64
