I'm trying to compile a bunch of code & I get the out of memory
message. How do I tell the javac command what memory size I want?

Hi Jeff.

Since the compiler runs in ant's VM, you have to tell ant about the memory.
I did that in my ~/.antrc :
--------------------------------------------------------------
JAVACMD="/usr/local/jdk1.3/bin/java -mx400M"
export JAVACMD
--------------------------------------------------------------

If you are using windows, I don't know where you have to place this file. I
guess, it's documented somewhere. ;^)

greetinx, Kai
