Java Forum / General / April 2005JTextArea and OutOfMemory message
Hi all! A question about JTextArea behaviour. If I read sequentially a big list of files and append the lines on a JTextArea, after a while I get a Memory error. If I concatenate the list of text files in a single big file and then read from it, there is no error, unless the file is really huge. I got an error with a file exceeding 5M. Besides that, if I select a big text from the JTextArea there is no way of copying it and paste. Any idea why? Are there memory limitations in the JTextArea? Or is it a JVM problem? Thank you all in advance Orlando > A question about JTextArea behaviour. > If I read sequentially a big list of files and [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > Are there memory limitations in the JTextArea? > Or is it a JVM problem? It is pretty hard to tell what is wrong with the code, since you did not post the code. But I'll take a wild stab: Are you closing the files? If that is not it, try posting a runnable example of the problem.  SignatureRegards, John McGrath > Any idea why? > Are there memory limitations in the JTextArea? > Or is it a JVM problem? Well of course there are memory limitations. There are *always* memory limitations. More importantly, why on earth would you want the contents of multiple files in a single JTextArea? What is the purpose? I think you need to redesign your GUI. >> Any idea why? >> Are there memory limitations in the JTextArea?

Processing a huge mailing list to sort the subjects. Bye Orlando >>>Any idea why? >>>Are there memory limitations in the JTextArea?
