thanks for the response Brett. I actually do have a lot of source to compile...around 3500 files. Is it possible that the compilation is generating so many errors that the compiler is running out of memory (make sense?)
sorry for the the trivial questions, but I'm using maven for the first time. when you say "those settings arent supported", which settings are you referring to? can you show me an example of how to use the MAVEN_OPTS setting? thanks again, -Riz. -----Original Message----- From: Brett Porter [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 04, 2005 8:33 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: Maven2 help Those settings aren't currently supported and since the compiler isn't forked, you're getting the settings m2 uses (which are the JVM defaults). You can control this with MAVEN_OPTS. Do you really have that much source to compile, or is this happening on any project? - Brett On 8/5/05, Rizwan Merchant <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > I'm trying to use maven2 to compile some code using the pom.xml file shown > below,.i.e., I am running the command "m2 -compile" on a certain project. > Maven2 starts up but eventually dies with a "Compilation failure" message of > the following nature: > > [INFO] Reason: Compilation failure > [INFO] --------------------------------------------------------------------- > ---- > --- > [INFO] Failure executing javac, but could not parse the error: > > The system is out of resources. > Consult the following stack trace for details. > java.lang.OutOfMemoryError > > Any one have any ideas as to why this may be happening? > > Thanks for your help. > -Riz. > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- > ---------------------------- > > <project> > <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> > <groupId>com.mycompany.app</groupId> > <artifactId>my-app</artifactId> > <packaging>jar</packaging> > <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> > <name>Maven Quick Start Archetype</name> > <url>http://maven.apache.org</url> > <build> > <plugins> > <plugin> > <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> > <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId> > <configuration> > <source>1.4</source> > <target>1.4</target> > <minmemory>128m</minmemory> > <maxmemory>1024m</maxmemory> > </configuration> > </plugin> > > </plugins> > > <sourceDirectory>source</sourceDirectory> > </build> > <dependencies> > <dependency> > <groupId>junit</groupId> > <artifactId>junit</artifactId> > <version>3.8.1</version> > <scope>test</scope> > </dependency> > </dependencies> > </project> > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
