Toast not shown in onEvent()

Hi,

Just needed a quick way to show a Toast in an Activity if something in an other non-activity class fails. Found this librarie and used your How-To to quickly implement it.

This is virtually copy and pasted from your how to. but the Toast won’t show up even though the Log triggers. This Snippet is in my MainActivity. Toasts from other places in the code are working.

    @Override
    public void onStart() {
        super.onStart();
        EventBus.getDefault().register(this);
    }

    @Override
    public void onStop() {
        EventBus.getDefault().unregister(this);
        super.onStop();
    }

    public void onEvent(errorEvent event){
        Looper.prepare();
        Log.v("Error! onEvent : ", event.message);
        Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, event.message, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    }

Which EventBus version are you using? onEventMainThread was necessary in EventBus 2, but EventBus 3 uses annotations.

@Subscribe(threadMode = ThreadMode.MAIN)
public void onEvent(AnyEventType event) {/* Do something */};

Even with “onEventMainThread” I still get the issue with the need to call looper.prepare(); any ideas?
