Heap Space with Export Application
Jun 3rd, 2008, 5:06pm  
Hello,

I have a program that draws to a high-resolution PGraphics screen which works fine in processing (with the available memory in preferences set to 1gb)

When I select Export Application, the exporting works fine. However when I then start the program I get a "heap space" error in the console.

Is there a way to allocate more memory to the application that I am exporting?

Thanks!

Yes I'm using OSX.
I just got it to work;
I selected the file and then "show package contents" in the finder.
In the Info.plist file I'm able to specify the memory (using -xmx, -xms)

Would be great if this would happen automatically. Will file a bug report if you'd like.
