Attachments:	Patch against template.xml to enable user control of maxmemory value

Description mdaniel 2005-04-04 17:19:15 UTC

The Ant "javadoc" task supports an optional "maxmemory" attribute which (when I
filled it in with my system RAM size of 2G) allows the openide javadoc target to
succeed.

Attached will be a patch against nbbuild/javadoctools/template.xml that allows
the user to set the maxmemory to a value that is meaningful on their system.

I am not familiar enough with the build system to include a patch that will
create a "reasonable" default, but suspect it will be a trivial task for those
in the know.

Recently we have split the javadoc build into smaller parts. Is there still need for 
your patch? Or everything works for you now?

I can confirm that with today's CVS checkout, the
org-netbeans-modules-apisupport-apidocs.nbm builds successfully. I still think
having this parameter is a Good Thing(tm), but it does not appear to be required
anymore.
