Xap Packaging failed System.outofmemoryexception Silverlight 4

Question

Hi

I'm working in a solution with a xap package of about 17 MB I know that is kind of big, but recently when I build the solution the visual studio send me an error of the kind Xap Packaging failed System.outofmemoryexception.

I found in some forums that if I close the visual studio the problem is solved but this doesn't work for me, the error persist.

Can somebody help me with this please? Is there a way in order to stop this kind of error?

I have Win XP 32 bits platform with 3GB RAM

Answer 1

Hi Jericco,

I searched the defination of outofmemoryexception:The exception that is thrown when there is not enough memory to continue the execution of a program.

Maybe the huge process like you’re using caused your application to run out of memory.

Did you monitor the memory of your computer when you build your it?

Best regards,

Hi Jericco,

Are there several projects in your solution?

If you build one project once, will this exception occur?

Hi Jericco,

Maybe there is an infinite loop in your code causes the exception.

Can you debug your codes to find out it?
