Nubie -- how to increase memory for compiler?

I'm trying to use ant, but I keep on getting an OutOfMemoryError:

---->8-------------------------------------------------------------
The system is out of resources.
Consult the following stack trace for details.

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
        <<no stack trace available>>

BUILD FAILED

How do I increase the memory stack?

Jay,

set JAVACMD=java -Xmx256m

and then run ant. It will use a 256 M heap. Change as appropriate.
