I have a Netbeans Platform modular project, not a regular Java project. I want to set VM options to increase memory, but under the “properties” dialog, there is no way to do this for a modular Netbeans platform project. This has cost me huge amounts of time and I still have not found a good way to set the VM args.
Does anyone know how to set VM args using a Netbeans platform modular project, when compiling and running the program in Netbeans 7? Given the amount of trouble, I am almost ready to give up on Netbeans to create modular applications.
It is quite easy, in fact. Just modify project.properties file to include the following line:
Edited:
Of course, you can include any other JVM options there.
Enjoy.
