Hey Paul, I will try increasing the -Xmx to 768 and hope it helps out. I am also looking for circular refs in the jars just in case that is the problem but I doubt I will find any.
Some older postings do refer to apps that go to size up to 16MB and more so my 5MB one should not be the issue. I think the packaging of apps over 1MB gives the Android plug in a bit too much to chew ( especially if it is composed of thousands of classes) ... I will let you know how it goes - thanks On Jul 25, 11:14 am, Paul Turchenko <paul.turche...@gmail.com> wrote: > Just increase JVM's heap size.
