WTK Memory capacity

I dont remeber the exact value , but you can change the ammount of memory for the emulator from the WTK-> prefrences -> storage-> heap size

this will emulate a device with the ammount of memory you just specified.

>>how to handel out of memory

1- the keyword"new" is not that simple to use( kep that in mind)

2- srround the most suspected memory consumer code with try and catch , to catch OutOfMemoryError. ( please note this is not Exception , this is error)

3- after catching the erroe run gc(), to clean up some resource.

4- gc() is not that cheap to call , so call it when u just released a heavy *** object and u about to create new heavier *** one.

finally

good code will be out of memory safe. ,btu bad code not only OutOfMemoryError generator , but also a main cause of the phone restart issue
