You might consider using the Kawa toolkit. Kawa (no connection with
the now-defunct IDE) is best known as a Scheme implementation, but it
is also a toolkit for implementating higher-level languages and
compiling them on-the-fly to Java bytecodes.


Here is an article (not quite up-to-data, alas) on how Kawa works:
