Sorry I did not get u … I don’t have any knowledge or prior exp of flex command line builds. Can you please elaborate? Where do I find OSX & where exactly do i type “export ANT_OPTS=”-Xms512m -Xmx512m”

Under OSX add this to your ~/.profile: export ANT_OPTS=”-Xms512m -Xmx512m”

Thanks worked perfectly, we’re running Zelix Klass Master to obfuscate our web app, and I’ve been running into java heap errors when it comes to obfuscating the classes. Your steps worked perfectly, it’s really not trivial to find in Eclipse! Thanks again!

Hi Guys,

I added following params in eclipse.ini file and also added to class Arguments, however still getting error-
“java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space”

Can some one tell me the permanent solution to this issue?

-vmargs
-XX:PermSize=1024m
-XX:MaxPermSize=1024m
-Xms512m
-Xmx512m

Thanks,

The term ‘PermGen space’ referred indeed to -XX:MaxPermSize=512m
I could not find the eclipse location to change the setting.
This was the solution, so thanks
