On the Windows platform if you start the
application by double-clicking on the Start menu shortcut/Desktop shortcut
in order to set a startup parameter you have to add a line with the
parameter to the file
author.vmoptions
located in the installation directory together with the launcher
file called
author.exe
. If the file
author.vmoptions
does not exist yet in the folder of the launcher file you have to
create it there. For example for setting the maximum amount of Java memory
to 600 MB the content of the file
author.vmoptions
must be:
-Xmx600m
If you start the application with the script
author.bat
you have to add or modify the parameter to the java command at
the end of the script. For example for setting the maximum amount of Java
memory to 600 MB the java command should start with:
java -Xmx600m -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true ...
On the Mac OS X platform to add or modify a
startup parameter you have to right-click on the
<oXygen/> XML Author
application icon in Finder, in
the pop-up menu select Show Package Contents, then in
the Contents directory you edit the file Info.plist
: in the key VMOptions you
modify the parameter if it already exists in that key or you add it after
the model of the existing parameters inside that key.
On the Linux platform you have to create a
file called
author.vmoptions
if it does not exist already and specify the parameter exactly as
in the case of the .vmoptions
file on the Windows
platform.
If you use the All
platforms distribution you have to add or modify the
startup parameter that you want to set in the java command line at the end
of the startup script
author.bat
on Windows,
authorMac.sh
on Mac OS X and
author.sh
on Linux. All these files are located in the installation
directory. For example for setting the maximum amount of Java memory to 600
MB on Windows the -Xmx parameter must be modified in the java command at
the end of
author.bat
like this:
java -Xmx600m -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true ...
on Mac OS X the java command at the end of
authorMac.sh
should look like:
java "-Xdock:name=Author"\ -Dcom.oxygenxml.editor.plugins.dir="$AUTHOR_HOME/plugins"\ -Xmx600m\
and on Linux the java command at the end of
author.sh
should look like:
java -Xmx600m\
"-Dcom.oxygenxml.editor.plugins.dir=$AUTHOR_HOME/plugins"\
