Description joannelau 2000-11-17 16:09:37 UTC
No indication of failure in compilation with low running virtual memory on NT
Compiling all the files in the package results in error in compiling the pkg at
the status bar. However no output window was created. User has no idea what's
wrong with the compilation. This particular problem appears in the case of PC
running low in virtual memory. There should be at least some indication or
warning to tell the user.

Jano, ask Java Team, I'm not sure that we are able to warn user. I think that 
it is not problem only in compilation, but in general.
Comment 2 jrojcek 2001-09-17 16:42:07 UTC
Hi Java team,
are we able to warn user about that kind of failure? The error is
shown in the status bar. Output window with error message should be
opened too.

Target milestone --> 3.3
Comment 4 Svata Dedic 2001-10-08 13:36:19 UTC
For an external compiler, the launched compiler is required to 
provide necessary messages. Since all output from the spawned 
process is captured, I assume it does not.
For the Internal Compiler, we probably can and probably do report 
the message, but since then virtually everything in the JVM may 
fail, the user is doomed anyway :-(

Resolved for 3.3.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
