Hi Folks,

I've run in to a java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space error when debugging an emml script. I think I need to increase the maximum heap size for Studio, but changing the -Xmx value in the eclipse.ini file doesn't seem to have had the desired effect.

Can anyone point me to the right config option to increase the heap size when debugging.

Cheers, Innes

Can you try the following setting in your eclipse.ini file?

--launcher.XXMaxPermSize

256m

-vmargs

-Xms64m

-Xmx1024m

Don’t give extra spaces and use small m in eclipse.ini….

Start the eclipse with clean command.

($eclipse –clean)

Thanks,

Rajesh

Hi Rajesh,

Thanks for your reply. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, but I've been away from work for a week. Anyway ...

I can't increase the -Xmx switch to anything more than 512m otherwise I get a JVM error (exit code -1) when I launch Eclispe (Ganymede).

Here's the ecplise.ini file I am using:

-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
512m
-framework
plugins\org.eclipse.osgi_3.4.2.R34x_v20080826-1230.jar
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5
-Xms64m
-Xmx512m

Any suggestions?

Cheers, Innes
