I used the Out Of Memory help from sun's site. Where it is quoted as
Out Of Memory : Requested array size exceeds VM limit
This indicates that the application attempted to allocate an array that is larger than the heap size. For
example, if an application tries to allocate an array of 512MB but the maximum heap size is 256MB,
then this error will be thrown. In most cases the problem is likely to be either that the heap size is too
small or that a bug results in the application attempting to create an array whose size is calculated to
be incorrectly huge.
I tried to simulate this by
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
public class JavaTest {
public static void main(String[] args){
long[] ll = new long[64*1024*1024];
}
}
on my machine with
javac *.java;java -Xmx256m JavaTest
But the above line is producing
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
at JavaTest.main(JavaTest.java:7)
What am I missing?
Update :
My java version is
$java -version
java version "1.6.0_15"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_15-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 14.1-b02, mixed mode)
