How to increase CCS heap

Johannes

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CCSTUDIO

Hi,

I'm getting the JVM low heap memory message and edited the eclipse.ini file to get a higher heap, now it looks like this:

-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.2.0.v20110502.jar
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
768m
--launcher.defaultAction
openFile
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.5
-Xms1024m
-Xmx1024m

But when I open up CCS and see the heap status bar (Window -> Preferences -> General -> Show heap status) it only uses 381M.

Why it's not using 1GB as configured?

Thanks

Hi Johannes,

What version of CCS do you use? Have you tried the below? If you are using v5 have you also modified ccstudio.ini?

Please keep us informed.

Best Regards,

Lisa

Q: How do I increase the Java heap size for Eclipse?

Open eclipse.ini in \ccsv4\eclipse Adjust the “-Xmx256m“ argument, i.e. bump up to 512m

Hi Lisa,

I didn't modified the ccstudio.ini file. Now I did and it really increased the heap.

Thanks for your help.
