Codename One treating label text as string literal in iOS?

Question

The app that I've built it a journaling app, and users can go back and look at their previous entries from a calendar page (screenshot attached). On iPhone only (Android is fine), after clicking through about 20 days the app crashes. It doesn't send a crash message through email, so I'm pretty sure that it's hitting a memory limit.

In testing, I kept all of my logic the same and only removed the part where I generate the spanlabel to show the journal text. I was still pulling the text from the database, just not creating the label and displaying it. And it stopped the crashing.

So my question is, is there anything I can do to make sure that the text that goes into the label does not get stored in memory, so that the garbage collector can remove it?

Answer 1

I've found the problem is caused when several really small queries run consecutively. After removing those the larger queries run without crashing.
