I've managed to create a workaround like this:

`if (OperatingSystem.current().isWindows()) {
task buildCucumberManifest(type: Jar) {
dependsOn configurations.cucumberRuntime

    doFirst {
        manifest {
            attributes "Class-Path": configurations.cucumberRuntime.files.collect {
                it.toURL().toString().replaceFirst(/file:\/+/, '/')
            }.join(' ')
        }
    }
}

tasks.cucumber {
    dependsOn buildCucumberManifest

    doFirst {
        tasks.cucumber.cucumberClasspath = files("$buildDir/classes/cucumber", "$buildDir/resources/cucumber", buildCucumberManifest.archivePath)
    }
}

}`

You can try long path tools program for solving this problem. Hope that will help you a lot.

lpiro · 2016-12-16T21:29:33Z

Thanks for the workaround.....it saved my ass! I was blocked with the windows "classpath too long" issue using the com.commercehub:gradle-cucumber-jvm-plugin.
I switched to SamuelBrown plugin and added the "buildCucumberManifest" solution above...and it worked like a charm.

Try https://github.com/viswaramamoorthy/gradle-util-plugins

Nope - Gradle Utils Plugin above does not address the issue specifically for cucumber (which is the subject of this thread). This is because of Step 5 in https://cucumber.io/docs/tools/java/#gradle

Thanks Viswaramamoorthy, was much helpful for me :)
