Setting PermGen space when running tests

[Howard Lewis Ship]

I'm running out of permgen space when running tests; from looking at the code, this looks like it should allow me to set that:

clojureTest.jvmOptions {

  jvmArgs '-XX:MaxPermSize=256m'

}

I'm not seeing an error, but my code is still failing with PermGen errors. Further, when I use VisualVM to investigate the launched process, the argument does not appear.  What is the right way to pass such options into the test process?

I'm using the patched version of 1.5.3 ("org.clojars.viacoban:clojuresque:1.5.3-SNAPSHOT").

The more I test, the more it looks like the configuration closure is never getting invoked.

The closure is invoked here: https://bitbucket.org/kotarak/clojuresque/src/4a5998e740e512950cc4feecbe07fde20c7e53cc/clojuresque/src/main/groovy/clojuresque/ClojureTestTask.groovy?at=default#cl-51

Try:

clojureTest.jvmOptions = {

  jvmArgs '-XX:MaxPermSize=256m'

}

Not the =. I must confess, I have never used this code and it is not well tested. Please let me know, whether this solves the problem.

I tried this with the = sign as well, and it did not appear to work.

I'm not an expert on Gradle coding, but this line in the code looks suspicious:

            this.jvmOptions()  // ClojureTestTask.groovy, line 52

Feel liks it should be:

  this.jvmOptions.call(it)

To pass it, the object being configured, into the closure.

I've created a pull request with the fix: passing the action and the jvmOptions to project.configure().

Also, I've put a patched version up on clojars; here's the special sauce:

buildscript {

    repositories {

        mavenCentral()

        mavenRepo name: 'clojars', url: 'http://clojars.org/repo'

    }

    dependencies {

        // See  https://bitbucket.org/kotarak/clojuresque/issue/8/clojure-compilation-fails-with-gradle-13               

        classpath "com.howardlewisship.patched:clojuresque:1.5.3-SNAPSHOT"
