Does Java 1.1.8 and/or Java 1.4.2 from Innotek for OS/2 automatically

If not, can one use the CONFIG.SYS file for either or both of these
Java toolsets to do this as in:

SET JAVA_HIGH_MEMORY=1

I have the above line in my config.sys file; no idea if it actually
works with java142...

The reason I ask is that the major heap full errors one sees in
Norman's NVC 5.8 for OS/2, if Java 1.1.8 or Java 1.4.2 are not
running in high memory sure might be cured by this. Knowing also
that NVC is documented as not being compatible with IBM's Java 1.1.3
as I've read.

Thoughts?

Thanks Peter. From what you just posted, I can then guess that your
system is actually working on a 'default' of VIRTUALMEMORYADDRESS=2048,

No, I do not have a VIRTUALMEMORYADDRESS line in config.sys

Now I guess I ought to check if I should...

No mention of that setting in Config Tool.

Maybe you are looking at this value

VIRTUALADDRESSLIMIT=1536

which is the value I use.

I was having all sorts of problems, mostly with Moneydance, but other
things as well, and experimented with a bunch of different values, but
virtualaddresslimit=1536 seemed to work best of all -- "innowin.dll"
problems come more on the order of every 3-4 months rather than every
day.
