Hi, I'm getting a crash in Java. Basically a txt file circa 150mb is being processed
goes into
It gets into the above loop and then simply crashes on line
the first time through giving me the error
etc etc. Maybe the file I'm processing is too big but the program has happened gigantic files before the only difference this time is that the files being processed were autoconverted from a different format.
fileHandler.shrinkFile();goes into
public void shrinkFile() throws FileNotFoundException, IOException, FileFormatException{
BufferedWriter outputTempFileWriter = null;
BufferedReader inputFileReader = null;
for(int i=0;i<choseFilesVector.size();i++){
String inputFile = choseFilesVector.get(i).toString();
inputFileReader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader( inputFile ), readBufferSize);
txtArea.append(" Processing "+inputFile+"\n");
txtArea.setCaretPosition(txtArea.getText().length());
//decide format
String strLine = null;
String format = null;
do{
//CRASH HAPPENS HERE
strLine = inputFileReader.readLine();
//CRASH HAPPENS HERE
if(strLine!=null && (strLine.split("\t").length>=4)){
String [] info = strLine.split("\t");
if((info[0].trim().toLowerCase().matches("chr(x|y|[0-9]+)"))&&(info[1].trim().matches("[0-9]+"))&&(info[2].trim().matches("[0-9]+"))){
//data of tagAlign
format = "tagAlign";
It gets into the above loop and then simply crashes on line
strLine = inputFileReader.readLine(); the first time through giving me the error
Exception in thread "Thread-4" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
