try...catch doesn't catch an exception after AfxThrowMemoryException()

[EDN Admin]

Hi all.
I have source code with Serialize:

<div style="color:Black;background-color:White; <pre>
<span style="color:Green; // myObjectsList is CList object
CMemFile memFile;

TRY
{
CArchive ar( &memFile, CArchive::store );
<span style="color:Blue; long count = myObjectsList.GetCount();
ar << count;

POSITION pos = myObjectsList.GetHeadPosition();
<span style="color:Blue; while( pos != NULL )
{
MyObject* myObject = myObjectsList.GetNext( pos );
<span style="color:Blue; int nType = myObject->GetType();
ar << nType;
myObject->Serialize( ar );
}
ar.Close();
}
CATCH_ALL( pE )
{
...
<span style="color:Blue; return <span style="color:Blue; false;
}
END_CATCH_ALL

######
MyObject::Serialize(ar)
{
CObject::Serialize( CArchive& ar );
<span style="color:Blue; if(ar.IsStoring())
{
ar << all my <span style="color:Blue; class variables
}
<span style="color:Blue; else
{
ar >> all my <span style="color:Blue; class variables
}
}
[/code]

When I serialize a very big CList (3000-4000 objects) I have situation "No memory":

<div style="color:Black;background-color:White; <pre>
<span style="color:Green; // file ...Microsoft Visual Studio 8VCatlmfcsrcmfcfilemem.cpp
<span style="color:Blue; void CMemFile::GrowFile(SIZE_T dwNewLen)
{
...
<span style="color:Green; // allocate new buffer
BYTE* lpNew;
<span style="color:Blue; if (m_lpBuffer == NULL)
lpNew = Alloc(dwNewBufferSize);
<span style="color:Blue; else
lpNew = Realloc(m_lpBuffer, dwNewBufferSize);

<span style="color:Blue; if (lpNew == NULL)
AfxThrowMemoryException();
...
}
[/code]
But very often my block TRY...CATCH_ALL doesnt catch the exception after AfxThrowMemoryException();<br/>
For example: I run my code 3-4 times. For 2-3 tests my block TRY...CATCH_ALL catchs this exception, but for 1-2 cases the block didnt catch

-------------------------------------------------------
Additional info:
1) I try build my code with keys /EHsc and /EHa too, but the issue was reproduced again
2) In debug mode I set breakpoint on AfxThrowMemoryException():

I cant find the root cause: why try...catch section cant catch AfxThrowMemoryException() in the second case
