Android: ProgressDialog.show() bloque avec getcontexteapplication

Je n'arrive pas à comprendre pourquoi ce qui se passe. Ce code:

mProgressDialog = ProgressDialog.show(this, "", getString(R.string.loading), true);

fonctionne très bien. Toutefois, ce code:

mProgressDialog = ProgressDialog.show(getApplicationContext(), "", getString(R.string.loading), true);

jette l'exception suivante:

Des idées pourquoi ce qui se passe? J'appelle cela de la onCreate méthode.
