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"\
