Get java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space error when compiling aspectJ project

Question

I get

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

when I try to compile an aspecj project. The project is a maven 2 project and I have set maven-compiler-plugin to use up to 2048m memory. But this error just doesn't go away. What else can I do to increase the heap space?

Actually I put this: set MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx1024m – newguy Nov 02 '10 at 06:10
exactly, -D sets system properties, not vm args – Sean Patrick Floyd Nov 03 '10 at 09:00
