MyEclipse: OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space

Post subject: OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space

I am trying to use ME on a rather tiny web project. My eclipse is crashing on a regular basis with the following message:

*** ERROR ***: Wed Mar 29 15:38:50 CEST 2006 java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space

I am starting to wonder whether anyone using this product on reasonably sized projects?

and, let me add: I have not seen any other eclipse/EMF/GEF-based product that produces these kinds of problems. It may be that you inherit them from WTP, though

Try putting the following in your eclipse shortcut:

Code:

-vmargs -Xmx512M -XX:PermSize=64M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M

Hope this helps.

I did not understand where do you want to put the following arguments

-vmargs -Xmx512M -XX:PermSize=64M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M

Can you please clearly mention where in the shorcut of eclipse these arguments should be set. Waiting for your reply. Thanks

The commandline to launch should look like:
eclipse.exe -vmargs -Duser.language=en -Xms128M -Xmx512M -XX:PermSize=64M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M

Hope that helps.
