Question

I am sporadically getting an OutOfMemoryError: (Heap Size=49187KB, Allocated=41957KB) in one of my apps. What can I do to diagnose this?

This is the line where it is happening:

LinearLayout resultMatchHeaderContainer = new LinearLayout(activity); 

if (!resultImagePath.equals("")) {   
    imageLoader.DisplayImage(resultImagePath,resultMatchHeaderContainer, -1,modifiedHeight, R.drawable.matches_placeholder_result2x);
} else {
    try {
        resultMatchHeaderContainer.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.matches_placeholder_result2x); 
    } catch (OutOfMemoryError e) {         
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}
