Crashing when I try to display a toast message, but does not crash in debugger
<p>I have been having a LOT of memory issues with my app.  I'm trying to catch the memory exceptions and then display a message using toast saying out of memory.</p>

<p>When I run the app with the tast code it crashes.  When I run it in the debugger, does not crash but no message comes up.</p>

<p>I'm trying to display the message within the catch memory exception inside the onCreate method of the Activty class.</p>

<p>code block:</p>

<pre><code>public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
            super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);


            // set size of card image
            ImageView CardImage = ( ImageView)findViewById(R.id.viewcard);
            int ScreenWidth=getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getWidth();
            int ScreenHeight=getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getHeight();

            // fix for tblets
            if (ScreenHeight&lt;ScreenWidth)
               ScreenWidth=ScreenHeight;

            int CardWidth=ScreenWidth/2;
            CardWidth+=CardWidth/10;

            // set bitmap
        //    Bitmap bmp=BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.card2);
            String FileName=new String("card");
            FileName+=Integer.toString( CardId+1);
            FileName+=".jpg";


            // put in text that matches card
            TextView mCardText = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.cardtext);
            mCardText.setText( "Card Meaning \n"+ cCardText.mCardMeaning[ CardId]);

            // put in text that matches card
            TextView mHouseText = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.housetext);
            mHouseText.setText( "House Meaning \n"+ cCardText.mHouseMeaning[ HouseId-1]);

        try {
       AssetManager assetManager= getAssets();
       InputStream inputStream;
       inputStream=assetManager.open(FileName);  
       Bitmap icon=BitmapFactory.decodeStream(inputStream);
       CardImage.setImageBitmap(icon);
        } catch( OutOfMemoryError e)
        {
    /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
    // crashes heare
            Context context = getApplicationContext();
            CharSequence text = "Out of Memory  ";
            int duration = Toast.LENGTH_SHORT;

            Toast toast = Toast.makeText(context, text, duration);
            toast.show();  

            gi++;
              return;
        } catch (IOException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
            return;
        } 


        //scale it
        // note: only code here that pertains to card image, becouse if card image cannot be loaded
        // the above exceptions will go off and we will never get here
        CardImage.getLayoutParams().width=CardWidth;
        CardImage.getLayoutParams().height = (int)( (float) CardWidth *1.7);


    }
