Classpath 4082 char limit and jars directories not classloading

Hi,

While using Apache Commons Daemon 1.3.4 (on Windows 7) in JVM mode to 
lauch an spring boot application, I found the following 2 issues:

#1 only finds the classes if the jars at Classpath are located at 
StartPath directory (a very workarround-able issue).

#2 Also classpath has a 4082 (undocumented) char limit (harder problem 
with springboot that adds lots of transitive (potentially unused) 
dependencies), had luck this time with 122 jars.

What options do I have to solve this? (specially #2).

Please find below evidence of

* All .jar in the StartPath directory (works):

prunsrv.exe //IS//cfdifacturar --Classpath=* ... --StartPath=%BASE% 
--StartMode=jvm -->

[2025-03-06 13:41:53] [debug] ( javajni.c:822 
:apxJavaInitialize          ) [12892] JVM Option[1] 
-Djava.class.path=camel-api-4.10.0.jar;...;spring-tx-5.3.31.jar;txw2-2.3.9.jar

* Jars inside directory under --StartPath (does Not work)

prunsrv.exe //IS//cfdifacturar 
--Classpath=file-integration-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar;i\* --StartPath=%BASE% 
--StartMode=jvm  -->

[2025-03-07 10:59:57] [debug] ( javajni.c:822 
:apxJavaInitialize          ) [11108] JVM Option[1] 
-Djava.class.path=file-integration-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar;i\camel-api-4.10.0.jar;i\camel-attachments-4.10.0.jar; 
... 
;i\spring-expression-5.3.31.jar;i\spring-jcl-5.3.31.jar;i\spring-tx-5.3.31.jar;i\txw2-2.3.9.jar

It does not find any jar in directory (i/)


* This truncates the classpath to 4082 chars (even does not find any jar):

prunsrv.exe //IS//cfdifacturar 
--Classpath=file-integration-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar;i\*  ... 
--StartPath=%BASE% --StartMode=jvm -->  -->

[2025-03-07 10:55:12] [debug] ( javajni.c:822

... ;import_lib\spring-boot-starter-2.7.18.j

prunsrv.exe //IS//cfdifacturar 
--Classpath=file-%BASE%\file-integration-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar;%BASE%\import_lib\* 
...  --StartPath=%BASE% --StartMode=jvm -->  -->

[2025-03-07 10:42:25] [debug] ( javajni.c:822 
:apxJavaInitialize          ) [ 5664] JVM Option[1] 
-Djava.class.path=file-C:\eclipsework\abis-oracle\file-integration\target\file-integration-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar;C:\eclipsework\abis-oracle\file-integration\target\import_lib\camel-api-4.10.0.jar; 
... ;C:\eclipsework\abis-oracle\file-integra

Thanks for any pointer on the above issues.
