Setting (bery long) classpath from rpg

(short story: I have to call a webservice with WS-security from RPG..)
as I did find a pure/native RPG solution, I have easily generated a java
client using apache cxf ...
I can run the java class from qsh using something like java -cp
"/javalibs/*:.:./:/javarun/bin/:" MyClass "parameter"

I must call this class from RPG and I do not find any reference to generic
ClassPath support
ADDENVVAR CLASSPATH '/javalibs/*:.:./:/javarun/bin/:' do not work and
seems limited to 1024 chars...
I made some progress coding with putenv() ... but generic do not work and
I have more than a hundred of jar names to concatenate and this is a time
consuming work...
where I am lost in many lines of unreadable code .:;-
I am tempted to write a tool to build the classpath from a directory but I
feel I am reinventing the wheel ...

Is there any possibility to use a generic class path from RPG or
something like a MANIFEST? or any suggestion?

Many thanks
Paul
