While making build in Cordova using cmd

Question

While making build using Cordova by cdm it is sending this error

**Starting a new Gradle Daemon for this build (subsequent builds will be faster).

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong: Unable to start the daemon process. This problem might be caused by incorrect configuration of the daemon. For example, an unrecognized jvm option is used. Please refer to the user guide chapter on the daemon at https://docs.gradle.org/ 2.14.1/userguide/gradle_daemon.html

  Please read the following process output to find out more:

Error occurred during initialization of VM Could not reserve enough space for 2097152KB object heap

• Try: Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Error: cmd: Command failed with exit code 1 Error output: FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

Faced similar issue after upgrading to Cordova 6.4.0 from Cordova 6.2.0. Managed to resolve it by adding _JAVA_OPTIONS variable with value -Xmx512M in system variables available under environment variables.

Screenshot as follows:

Hope it helps. Cheers.
