Getting OutOfMemory Error while launching external build tools [message #142003]

HI,
I have a java project and the compilation of this project depends on an
external build tool(which automatically generates some java classes).
so I tried to use the feature called External Build tools existing on each
Projects properties.
But here is the problem.

When I tried to compile I get "Out of Memory Error"..

whats going on here..why do I get this error?

FYI: The external tool I run is actually a jflex.

Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Jelda

Have you tried increasing the heap size by specifying a VM arg when starting
Eclipse?
e.g. -vmArgs -Xmx450M
