Out of Memory Exception in java Eclipse

Question

Iam trying a Compiler in my java Eclipse. And I get the error :

Exception occurred during event dispatching:
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
at java.awt.image.DataBufferInt.<init>(Unknown Source)

How to solve this?

Compiler compiles up to 185 files out of 414 files and then gets the exception. The memory is 1024M

That should be ample memory usually. Is it always failing on the same file? Is there anything different about the file? (e.g. is it HUGE?) — Vala

BTW - "185 files" Are these .java files, .jpg or something else? By 'compiler' DYM code compilation? — Andrew Thompson

Your error implies Runtime OutOfMemoryError. You a saying it complies some out of more files. Does your project attempt to run some files before it compiles all? Do you describe what happens correctly? — Germann Arlington

Click on Run configuration in the Eclipse. Choose your application or server tab (which you want to have more memory size).

In the Argument tab, write -Xmx<memory size>. memory size is what you want to set.

set your Virtual Memory Argument -Xms128M -Xmx1024M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M like this
