Increasing JVM memory using an applet parameter

[humberto....@gmail.com]

Hi!

I've heard that it's now possible to increase the JVM memory using an
applet parameter (not using the java control panel) but I cannot find
this information on the web. Any references?

Thanks in advance, Humberto.

Java 1.6.0_10+ JREs have the ability to configure
memory for embedded applets via JNLP (webstart).
Previously it was only available for *free floating*
applets (and applications) launched using webstart.

For JNLP deployment of embedded applets.
<https://jdk6.dev.java.net/plugin2/jnlp/>

For specifying extra memory in a JNLP
<http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/javaws/developersguide/
syntax.html#resources>

Look for 'max-heap-size'.

Thanks! I suppose this feature is not available for ordinary (non
JNLP) applets, right?

I had not known about the JNLP approach. Qu0ll helpfully offered this
alternative:

As mentioned by other, please refrain from top-posting.
It is most cond=fusing. Instead, put comments directly
after anything above, and trim non-relevant material.

Well before I get into that, I want to know a
few things.
1) Do you understand what multi-posting is, and
why it is discouraged?
2) What are your future intentions when posting?
(To multi-post, or not multi-post)
3) Which of the threads you started, do you wish
to continue on? (Because I do not intend posting
my answers to each thread)

Note: Reply x-posted *(not multi-posted)* to
c.l.j.h./p. w/ f-u not set.
