I’m getting the error “Memory Pool Not Found” and the suggestion to add the vmargs (even though I already have them) several times a day now despite the fact that I have disabled the JavaScript validation. I am forced to restart MyEclipse each time to avoid losing my work/preferences/changes.

HOW CAN I FIX THIS ISSUE??? IT IS IMPACTING MY WORK!

[Pedro Riera]

Sorry for the drama. I usually work using a Working Set. I had to open all my web projects and disable the JavaScript Validation. But seriously, I hope you guys are working on a fix for that.

pedromatic,

Both MyEclipse 8.5 and 8.6 face issues with JavaScript validation and memory consumption. The good news is that an update to 8.6 will be released later today which should fix these issues. I will post here when the update is available, and would recommend simply taking that update to resolve your problems.

If you have not already updated to 8.6, please do not do so until the update is available, I will add a note to this thread when the update is released. In the meanwhile you should be able to disable JavaScript validation globally (instead of at a per project level) using Window > Preferences > MyEclipse > Validation and unchecking the manual and build checkboxes next to JavaScript Validator.

Is there any way to get a size estimate on how much JS and HTML you have across your projects (number of files / size of files)?

[Pedro Riera]

All together our projects contain roughly 3000 JavaScript libraries, including several copies of JQuery libraries and plugins, Dojo, Dijit and Dojox, TinyMCE and our own libraries. Approximately 800 JSP and HTML files.

I look forward to the update. Please let us know when it is available for download.

Thank you, Brian.

How can I increase the memory allocation to MyEclipse? Any change from the default (below, from myeclipseforspring.ini) results in an error message. My machine has 4gb memory.

-configuration
configuration
-vmargs
-Xmx512m
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m
-XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=64m

pedromatic,

Wow, that is quite a workspace. The update has been released and if you go to Help > MyEclipse Configuration Center and the Dashboard tab, it should show you an update to 8.6 which you should take.

On the memory front, you should be able to change the -Xmx value from 512m to something like 768m or 1024m easily without a problem. Typically going beyond that causes issues. Does -Xmx768m not work?

I have 15 projects and in 8.5 it was fine now with 8.6 I’m running out of memory and I’ve set it to 1024m as you stated in the myeclipse.ini file, validation is also off :

-vmargs
-Xmx1024m
-XX:MaxPermSize=256m
-XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=64m

Looks like I may have to go back to 8.5, unless you have any other changes.

microsretail,
Can you copy paste your version and build id from Help > About MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench?

validation is also off :

Can you switch to a new workspace and check if the issue persits?

microsretail, ,

We released an update to fix this issue. To verify that the update was applied, please verify if you have
Version: 8.6
Build id: 8.6-20100806
under Help > About MyEclipse Enterprise Workbench.
In case you are still on
Version: 8.6
Build id: 8.6-20100723
Open Help > MyEclipse Configuration Center. Choose the Dashboard tab. Check for software updates available. Make sure to add the updates by clicking on [Apply x changes] under *Pending Changes* section. This will open a wizard which will guide you through the rest of the steps. When prompted, please choose to restart your IDE.

Best.

I’ve tried
uninstall 8.5, installing 8.6 upgrading to the latest version :
Version: 8.6
Build id: 8.6-20100806

creating a new workspace
changing the ini to 1024m

I still get this issue with only 6 projects.

EDIT:
I figured out what it was…one of my projects ( a GWT project) somewhere along the way got this set in the .project file which was causing MyEclipse to go crazy even with validation off

<buildCommand>
    <name>org.eclipse.ui.externaltools.ExternalToolBuilder</name>
    <triggers>full,incremental,</triggers>
    <arguments>
        <dictionary>
            <key>LaunchConfigHandle</key>
            <value><project>/.externalToolBuilders/org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core.javascriptValidator.launch</value>
        </dictionary>
    </arguments>
</buildCommand>
        
<nature>org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core.jsNature</nature>

I removed these settings and tried again and it seems to be working.
