Do not pass in the classpath on the command line.
Use a classpath ref and dynamically build a classpath
in your script.
For example, if you want to build a classpath of all
jar files in directories A..F:
<path id="class.path">
<fileset dir="${A.dir}">
<include name="*.jar"/>
</fileset>
<fileset dir="${B.dir}">
<include name="*.jar"/>
</fileset>
<fileset dir="${C.dir}">
<include name="*.jar"/>
</fileset>
<fileset dir="${D.dir}">
<include name="*.jar"/>
</fileset>
<fileset dir="${E.dir}">
<include name="*.jar"/>
</fileset>
<fileset dir="${F.dir}">
<include name="*.jar"/>
</fileset>
</path>
