This is obviously a horrible idea. As others have said, you should learn
how to use a build tool. That being said, who doesn't like a challenge ?
The posted solutions here are pretty horrible too, so I made this
(apologies for line length):

JDK 8 has java.util.Base64, that will make your example different.

Is there any reason to use that over the already existing DatatypeConverter
.printBase64Binary ?

Not so much DatatypeConverter, but
Apache Commons IO IOUtils means another lib.

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Base64;

public class PrintFile {

   public static void main(String[] args)
       throws IOException {
     File file = new File(args[0]);
     try (FileInputStream input =
         new FileInputStream(file)) {
       byte[] src = new byte[(int) file.length()];
       input.read(src);
       System.out.println(
           Base64.getMimeEncoder().encodeToString(src));
     }
   }
}
