I got an out of memory error message when VS Code tried to parse a large XML file, and this generated a pop-up message in the bottom right:
Clicking the "More info..." button in the pop-up message opened a pane displaying the
docs/Troubleshooting.md
page, focused on the "The Language Server Crashes Due to an Out Of Memory Error" section:That was useful, as the message explained that I could swap to the binary language server to avoid the problem, but didn't specify how to do it.
This PR adds:
docs/Preferences.md
that one can follow to learn more about what these language server modes mean;Troubleshooting.md
page already includes regarding the other possible solution for this issue (i.e. increasing the memory available to the Java language server).Note: I'm not sure if a relative link works here. Happy to swap the link to the full URL
https://github.com/redhat-developer/vscode-xml/blob/main/docs/Preferences.md#server-binary-mode
if necessary.
