How to increase heap space and debug in Eclipse

Question

The issue is that running from cmd is not very good for debugging . I need to debug the code , so is there any way i could increase heap and debug in eclipse .

I tried increasing heap in control panel - > java -> view - > 6g

but still get the java out of memory in eclipse

Answer 1

1. Click the arrow next to the run button, and select Run Configurations...
2. Select your application from the left list
3. Go to Arguments
4. In VM arguments add -Xmx6g -Xms2g
5. Click Apply.

This will increase the heap size for that launch configuration to 6G.
