Description ojoqaa 2014-05-08 06:13:31 UTC

In netbeans.conf file, no matter "-J-Xmx" is set or is not set, no matter how much memory is set to "-J-Xmx", this parameter is not sent to JVM.
My program need around 1.5G memory. I have run is in Netbeans IDE with below mentioned parameter:
1. not set "-J-Xmx";
2. set "-J-Xmx1024m";
3. set "-J-Xmx1536m"
My program always gets crashed with "GC overhead limit exceeded" or "Java heap space" and jconsole shows the program is limited with memory 1G.
Finally I run my program directly in command line with "java -Xmx1536m...", it finished successfully and jconsole shows it need more than 1.3G memory.

"My program need around 1.5G memory. I have run is in Netbeans IDE with below mentioned parameter:" 
should be:

Please try to run one of the latest daily builds. There were some changes in launchers. If it won't help please reopen and run IDE with --trace launcher_output.log parameter and then attach here the output file.

Sorry, I haven't noticed, that it's related to linux. The --trace argument won't work. Than you could run IDE "$ sh -x netbeans > launcher_output.log"
