The standard way to pass arguments like this to the JVM is to set the
CATALINA_OPTS environment variable (this is for Tomcat 4.x -- in Tomcat
3.x it was called TOMCAT_OPTS) before starting Tomcat.
You should be aware, however, that Windows has limits on the overall
length of the command line (and the limit seems to vary depending on which
version of Windows you're talking about -- you'd think that they would
reuse the COMMAND.COM code :-). About the only thing you can do, short of
switching operating systems, is install Tomcat in a directory with a
shorter path.
