How to manage the memory Atollic TrueSTUDIO uses
Answer
The allocated heap can be displayed if you select Windows -> Preferences -> General and enable “Show heap status”. The current heap and allocated memory will now be displayed in the lower, right corner.
By pressing the wastebasket you forces Atollic TrueSTUDIO® to do a memory cleanup. Normally that is done automatically.
There is an upper limit for how much memory Atollic TrueSTUDIO® can allocate. Sometimes you might want to change it. One reason can be that the program crashes on startup when it tries to allocate more memory then your system can allow it to allocate. Another reason can be that you want to be able to allocate more memory so that you can store more information during a debug-session.
· Go to your TrueSTUDIO installation directory and then go into the 'ide' folder.
· Edit the TrueSTUDIO.ini file and change the -Xmx512m parameter to the size in megabytes that you prefer.
· Save the file and try launching TrueSTUDIO again.
