      A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
      The "javac" tool allows the use of:

      @<filename> to "Read options and filenames from file"

      Please provide the same functionality for the "java" tool.

      JUSTIFICATION :
      Very often, the compile and runtime classpath are identical. Adding this functionality will allow both command-lines to share the same configuration.

      Currently we need to manually sync the data between the external file for javac and inline value for java.
