OutOfMemoryError in Ecplise

[ashok ks]

When i import a directory thru File -> Import option in Ecplipse, it shows OutOfMemoryError, Why?

[Jeff Langr]

Try starting Eclipse with a higher memory setting. For example:

eclipse.exe -vmargs -Xmx256M

Try importing other directories. Is there a problem with just one directory, say with a really big file, or a really large number of files? Or does it happen even for small, simple directories? This may help offer further clues...
