How to set -XX:PermSize=64m in maven-compiler-plugin?

问题

I faild in setting the permsize or maxpermsize with the maven-compiler-plugin (v3.2).

I tried it like this:

<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>      
<configuration>
    <meminitial>1024m</meminitial>
    <maxmem>2024m</maxmem>  
    <compilerArgument>-XX:PermSize=128m</compilerArgument>  
</configuration>
</plugin>

Which results in an error

Caused by: org.codehaus.plexus.compiler.CompilerException: invalid flag: -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -XX:PermSize=128m
    at org.codehaus.plexus.compiler.javac.JavaxToolsCompiler.compileInProcess(JavaxToolsCompiler.java:191)
    at org.codehaus.plexus.compiler.javac.JavacCompiler.performCompile(JavacCompiler.java:169)
    at org.apache.maven.plugin.compiler.AbstractCompilerMojo.execute(AbstractCompilerMojo.java:785)
    ... 22 more

    at org.codehaus.plexus.compiler.javac.JavaxToolsCompiler.compileInProcess(JavaxToolsCompiler.java:115)
    ... 24 more

My other attempt was adding it like in the example http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/examples/pass-compiler-arguments.html

<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>      
<configuration>
    <meminitial>1024m</meminitial>
    <maxmem>2024m</maxmem>  
    <compilerArguments>
        <Xms>128m</Xms>
        <Xmx>1024m</Xmx>                        
        <XX:MaxPermSize>256m</XX:MaxPermSize>
        <XX:PermSize>128m</XX:PermSize>                                              
    </compilerArguments>
</configuration>
</plugin>

Resulting in the very same error:

Caused by: org.codehaus.plexus.compiler.CompilerException: invalid flag: -XX:MaxPermSize
    at org.codehaus.plexus.compiler.javac.JavaxToolsCompiler.compileInProcess(JavaxToolsCompiler.java:191)

so, why is this flag invalid? If it is gracefully taken into account when I add it to the MVN_OPTS variable?

回答1:

From the javac documentation:

-Joption Pass option to the java launcher called by javac. For example, -J-Xms48m sets the startup memory to 48 megabytes.

Based on the above:

<compilerArgs>
  <arg>-J-XX:PermSize=128m</arg>
  <arg>-J-XX:MaxPermSize=256m</arg>
</compilerArgs>

回答2:

First there is a hint concerning the parameters in the docs

Sets the arguments to be passed to the compiler if fork is set to true. Example:

<compilerArgs>
  <arg>-Xmaxerrs=1000</arg>
  <arg>-XX:PermSize=128m</arg>
</compilerArgs>

which means if you need them for you build you have to do this either via MAVEN_OPTS or you can define them in .mavenrc (linux) or mavenrc_pre.bat (Windows).

回答3:

You can just add

export MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx512m

in your ~/.bash_profile
