Class with heap memory

[qbasicking]

I have been unable to find anything about heap memory in my JAVA book and I need to be able to create a class with the non-standard option of having 256MB of heap memory. Any help would be appreciated.

That's nothing you can do in the class itself, since the heap memory is allocated in the JVM. If you start the program with the option -Xmx256mb, you'll be fine. Like this:

java -Xmx256m -classpath . some.package.MyClass

Have a read in your favourite command line at "java -?" and "java -X".

I would initialise the heap also with :

java -Xms256m -Xmx256m -classpath . some.package.MyClass
