Vista Crash

My old XP system needed upgrading - basically because Oxygen was very
slow.  Yesterday I bought a new desktop computer with 3 Gigabytes of
memory and was looking forward to fast transformations |-)!

I installed Oxygen and everything looked great.  I tried running a
transformation that takes 2 seconds on my old XP with 512 megabytes
of memory and the transformation took 5 minutes.  I tried it again
and got a message saying to increate the "-Xmx" in Oxygen.bat.

I increased it from 256m to 512m then to 1g and am still having
the same problem.

I couldn't find any information on the archives.  Anyone have any
advice on solving this problem.

TIA!

Betty

Re: Vista Crash

Run your transform with saxon ... without oxygen ... this is not likely 
oxygen ... just a guess ...

Re: Vista Crash

Duh! Sometimes I forget to look at the obvious! I was having other
issues with Vista and didn't even think to look at the result file
because of the crashing.  I had made one change to the XSLT when
migrating from XP to Vista but it was enough to create a 77 MB file
and cause Oxygen to crash when trying to open it!

I really hate upgrading to new computers just because of the sheer
work getting programs installed and working.  Oxygen is one of my
favorite programs and it was one of the ones I was concerned about
but all is working fine!

Thsnks!

Re: Vista Crash

Hello,

Generally you should not try to open files larger than 70 MB in oXygen. 
In such cases the total memory needed for the Java virtual machine may 
exceed the maximum limit allowed for Windows processes, that is 2 GB (if 
4 GB tuning is not enabled in Windows) which ends up with a crash of the 
JVM.

Regards,
Sorin

Re: Vista Crash

One more remark: however files up to 2 GB in size can be opened in 
read-only mode in the Large File Viewer tool available from the Tools 
menu and also available as a standalone tool from the group of oXygen 
shortcuts on the Start menu.

Sorin

Hi Sorin,

I edit larger XML files (100~150MB) in a Java application that uses Xerces parser without memory problems. The maximum memory allowed parameter is set to almost 1GB (-Xmx999M). What parser does oXygen use?

Rodolfo

Re: Vista Crash

Hello Rodolfo,

The cause of the very large memory amount needed for opening large 
documents is the architecture of the Java Swing components needed for 
rendering a document in the syntax highlighted _text editor_. It is an 
inherent problem of the Swing architecture which has no connection with 
the parser.

Regards,
Sorin

My app uses SWT, not Swing. That may explain the difference.

I have verified that the problem does not occur in the V9 released today.

Do all 8.2 owners get upgraded to 9 automatically?

If not then this bug would need to be fixed in 8.2 as well.

Cheers,

E.
