[R-SIG-Mac]Re: [Rd] Search Engine (PR#2813)

[Jan de Leeuw]

What is your Java version ? Say "s" in the Java Console under the window
menu in Safari to find out. The searchengine applet loads and  
initializes but then gives
a java.lang.OutOfMemory exception -- there seems to be only 1M  
available,
even after garbage collection. I remember the same problem also occurred
in a much earlier version of R, OS X, and Apple's Java, but then went  
away.
Maybe people who use Java 1.3 do not have this problem.
