Since Java 9 it has been possible to pass parameters to Java processes via a file. This cleanly solves the issue of parameter length limits on all platforms.
Previously, if the user encountered errors due to a large classpath, they could enable a flag so that a jar file was constructed with a manifest containing the classpath. This functionality can now be replaced as the minimum supported version has been raised to 11.
The parameter file is a more flexible general solution which will continue to work if/when pitest adds support for module paths.
