/**
* Helper class for storing long command lines inside temporary file.
* <p>
* Typical usage:
*
* <pre>
* builder = new CommandLineBuilder();
* builder.addArg("--someoption");
* builder.addArg("optionValue");
* ...
* builder.saveArgs();
* doSomething(builder.getCommandLineFile());
* builder.dispose();
* </pre>
*
* It will save options in <code>builder.getCommandLineFile()</code>. Options
* will be stored one in a line. To retrieve options from file helper method can
* be used (see documentation):
*
* <pre>
* String[] args = CommandLineBuilder.preprocessCommandLineArguments(args);
* </pre>
*
* </p>
*
* <p>
* NOTICE: No protection against line separators in arguments, should be OK for
* Cobertura needs.
* </p>
* <p>
* NOTICE: This class depends on local machine settings (line separator, default
* encoding). If arguments are saved on different machine than they are loaded,
* results are unspecified. No problem in Cobertura.
* </p>
