word file parsing content limit
hello all
Am parsing a doc file using jakarta poi api . Its working fine
. When i tried to parse a 20MB file it throws "java heap space" exception .
How do i handle this exception without resizing my doc file ? Is there any
way to extract only a limit of content from my doc file. i.e ) if my doc
file size is 20MB , but i want to get the content of only 8MB . Is there any
way to solve this . Please any1 help me....

I could well be wrong but as I understand it, owing to the way the OLE2CDF
file format works, it is not possible to parse just a section of the file.
The first step I would recommend is to increase the amount of memory that
Java can use with these runtime options;
java -Xms<initial heap size> -Xmx<maximum heap size>
The default maximum is - I think - 128MB.
