Question:
Is it possible in Java to increase an application’s stack size?
Answer:
The stack size of an application can be set at run time depending on the virtual machine you are using. Sun JDK 1.3 supports a non-standard option that can be set when you execute the java command to alter the default thread stack size.
The -Xss flag accepts anargument indicating the size of the stack in bytes. For example,
java -Xss1024k
would set the default thread stack size toone megabyte.
