I tried to read large XML files using DOM on HP, using version .27.
Until 20 MB it works fine, but there is a limit, that I get,
when the structure gets bigger, it means also, the file is mostly bigger
too.
Problem:
During reading, the Reader (see below) quit reading returning exception.
It happens, when the process acheived the mark of 674 MB of used RAM.
I tried it on different machines and it is allways the same.
Is there a memory limit for xerces?
I don't know whether or not Xerces has any limits in the size of files
that it can process. However...
Perhaps the problem is not in Xerces but rather in the amount of virtual
memory available to your process. Type "man ulimit" to look at the manual
page for the "ulimit" command. In particular, your system administrator
might have placed a limit on the amount of virtual memory available to
applications. You can check for this with "ulimit -v". From memory, I
think the command to unset this limit is "ulimit -v unlimited". Another
possibility might be that the entire computer is running out of virtual
memory. If the "top" command is available on your computer then run it in
one shell window while running your application in another windows, and
look at the details in "top" regarding the amount of virtual memory or
swap space that is available. If this shrinks close to zero then lack of
virtual memory is your problem.
Regards,
Ciaran.
