Thank you for taking the time to respond. The only reason I catch
Throwable is that the code is shared with BlackBerry and catching
Throwable will generate a stack trace where Exception won't It's some
kind of optimization.
I just tried wrapping the exception in RuntimeException and it works.
Cool bananas! Thank you.

The stacktrace you are seeing is that raised by executing Assert#fail.
It is not your original Exception.
1) You should probably not be catching Throwable. Catch the explicit
checked exception thrown by m_TheGame#load()
2) If you want your original Exception to get propagated wrap it in a
RuntimeException, ie
throw new RuntimeException(caughtExcetion);
3) You shouldn't be using junit.framework.Assert#fail in production
code. It should only be using from a test harness.

Hello,
I am finding the Android Market crash reports to be an unbelievably
useful tool! Unfortunately I am having issues with exceptions that
happen off the main thread. Since I am a C programmer, I dropped an
assert down to get the game to stop. Clearly I am not a Java expert.
Is there some way I can get the stack trace of the offending thread?
m_LoadThread = new Thread( new Runnable()
{
public void run()
{
try
{
m_TheGame.load();
}
catch( Throwable t )
{
t.printStackTrace();
junit.framework.Assert.fail( "LoadingMode.LoadThread: " +
t.toString() );
}
}
} );
m_LoadThread.start();
This is what I get in the report. It's better than nothing but more
would be good.
junit.framework.AssertionFailedError: LoadingMode.LoadThread:
java.lang.NullPointerException
