      Description

        A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
        The javac command-line tool overcomes command-line length limitations using the @argfiles option. Unfortunately, the java command-line tool runs into the same limitations but does not support @argfiles.

        Please add @argfiles to the java command-line tool.

        JUSTIFICATION :
        See http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=224293 for an example of a reasonable command-line that fails to execute due to command-line length limitations.
