Hi all,
in my application I would like to catch all exceptions globally - it should not matter, where those exceptions occur. Some runtime exceptions are practically impossible to catch (OutOfMemoryError for instance), but I want to show an informative dialog and resume execution at some well-defined point (main menu activity or something). Using Thread.setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler() does this for background threads, but it is of no help in the UI thread (or adjacent handlers). If an exception occurs in the UI thread, the UI will be jammed - not reacting to any key or touch events anymore. Of course, this seems natural since it did not catch that exception; but I wonder if there is a way to recover the UI thread. So: - Can I recover / restart the UI thread after an uncaught exception (from another thread) ? - Is there another way to catch uncaught exceptions globally ? - Are there viable alternatives to handle this problem ? Thx in advance --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
