SyncFusion Xamarin.Forms Samples not building for iOS/Droid Projects

Question

I have VS 2015 Community with Xamarin, Android SDK, etc. installed and today I stumbled upon SyncFusions Controls for X.F that are free in the community license. I installed the SyncFusion Essentials Studio for Xamarin.Forms.

The problem is that I cant run the included Samples like SampleBrowser or ServerMonitor when I select Android or iOS. If I select UWP or WinPhone the apps run. The issue is that the projects do not build. In The SampleBrowser for example I get 1400+ Errors when I want to build. VS recognizes almost nothing of the Code. But as I said everything that is not a Droid/iOS Project runs.

I have the Android SDK installed with API 19-23. AVDs are also configured. I also have a Macbook Air next to me that is connected to VS.

I tried cleaning the solution and re-building the solution without success. There were also no changes to the code made.

Edit: Here is a picture of the error list:

Edit 2: Here is the error list from "build only" on pastebin and as an image:

Answer 1

The “java.lang.OutOfMemoryError” error is a Xamarin issue and it occurs when the app size is exceeded some limit. You can refer the following bug report.

Solution:

Right click the Android project and select Properties > Android Options > Advanced

Set the Java Heap size as 1G.

Answer 2

I found the solution. The comment to only show "build" errors lead to the errorlist you see in Edit2. There you see an OutOfMemory-Error. The resolution is the following.

"I was getting a java.lang.OutOfMemoryError while trying to compile a Xamarin Android application after adding HockeyApp.

I found to ways to resolve this.

The first option is to add a Environment Variable called _JAVA_OPTIONS and set it to -Xmx1g. This sets the JVM heap size to 1GB. You can either do this from the commandline by calling SET _JAVA_OPTIONS = -Xmx1g Or you can edit your system environment variables:"
