Compiling and Running under Microsoft VISTA 64bit

If you are running under a 64bit Microsoft VISTA system you may have to change some
of the Java Virtual Machine run time settings to use a larger Java heap space.

Specifically when you compile the system and run the tests you will have to change
the pom.xml file in uima-core to be:

<build>
<finalName>uima-core</finalName>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<argLine>-Xmx1200M</argLine>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>

Note that the Xmx parameter has been increased.

When running the applications you will also have to modify the setUimaClassPath.bat file to be something like the following.

@if "%UIMA_JVM_OPTS%"=="" set UIMA_JVM_OPTS=-Xms128M -Xmx1600M
