Troubleshooting
Problem
Stack Overflow exceptions can occur when a thread stack continues to grow in size until reaching the maximum limit.
Symptom
A stack overflow can result from:
- A deeply nested application
- An infinite loop within an application
- A problem in just-in-time (JIT) compiled code
- Applications requiring a larger stack size, especially ones relying on XML, GUI, or java2D classes.
- Native method calls
Stack overflow issues are frequently masked by Out of Memory exceptions. By resolving the memory constraints, the stack overflow can be resolved.
