GOAL:
How to increase the amount of memory available to Eclipse
GOAL:
How to increase the Heap size of Eclipse
GOAL:
How can the amount of memory available for Eclipse and OpenEdge Architect be increased?
FACT(s) (Environment):
OpenEdge 10.1x
OpenEdge 10.2x
Windows
FIX:
To increase the amount of memory (heap) that is available to Eclipse use the parameters -vmargs -Xms and -Xmx, and set them to an appropriate value. For example:
C:\Progress\OpenEdge\oeide\eclipse\eclipse.exe -vm "C:\Progress\OpenEdge\jre\bin\javaw.exe" -showlocation -vmargs -Xmx384M
-Xmx384M specifies that the Java virtual machine can address a maximum heap size of 384MB.
-Xms384M specifies that the initial heap size is 384MB.
These are java parameters, so do not apply directly to Progress, only Eclipse. They can be set on the command line or in the <OE10 Installation>\oeide\eclipse\eclipse.ini file.
