signjar task OutOfMemoryError

[Jim Garacci]

I did a little investigation into this, i.e. I did a cvs checkout of the 
source, and noticed that someone added a "maxmemory" attribute to 
SignJar on 12/23.  

<hat style="manager">
   I did not, however, find a bug entry for this.  Not yet having 
contributed to an open source project, is it standard practice for the 
opensource community to just submit code fixes without recording 
bug/enhancement entries in bugzilla?  On projects I have been on in the 
past, as my current project, we submit enhancement entries such that 
changes like this can be logged.
</hat>

<hat style="qa">
   Why was the attribute not named "memoryMaximumSize" as it was for 
javac for consistancy purposes?
   Why was a "memoryMinimumSize" attribute not added, again for 
consistancy?
   Why was the Java class attribute not made all lower case to match 
the rest of the source in the file?
</hat>

Regardless, is there anyway to check on the status of this fix and its 
possible inclusion in 1.5.2 or 1.6?

Thanks,
-Jim
P.S. Sorry about the <hat> tags, the person that suggested that has been sacked.

I am using the signjar task, Ant 1.4.1, and am getting an OutOfMemoryError.
I see that jarsigner on the command line requires VM options to be 
passed using -J-Xms128m -J-Xmx256m arguments.  Is there a way to do this 
in the signjar task.  Or in all ant tasks, in general?

Note: setting ANT_OPTS does not work.  I have that set to 128m and 256m 
already, which works for compilation using javac.  However, jarsigner is 
not passed these and fails.

Thanks in advance,
Jim
