Oxygen is overflowing the stack trying to validate one of my XML files against its schema. However, if I modify this file: C:\Program Files\Oxygen XML Editor 9\oxygen.vmoptions from this: -Xmx700m to this: -Xmx700m -Xss1024k Oxygen fails to start. I select it from the Start Menu and get this message: Error The JVM could not be started. The main method may have thrown an exception.
If I delete the Xss option again it works. I've tried values of 512k, 512 and 1024k.
It fails because the minimum heap size switch is "Xms" not xss... (and I think the default is 1m anyway) Also, setting that switch wouldn't make any difference because that is the amount of memory the JVM grabs at startup - it will continue to use more memory until it hits the value specified by the Xmx switch. I'm afraid I can't help with the main problem of stack overflow, other than to try using Java 1.6 and/or Saxon as the schema processor (assuming your regex was good) -- Andrew Welch http://andrewjwelch.com Kernow: http://kernowforsaxon.sf.net/
