使用GWT将Java编译为Javascript库

Question

In my project I need to take Java code and compile it to a Javascript library so it may be used in my web application.
I'm thinking of using GWT, but I don't need all that it offers. I just need a simple command line utility that can take Java code and emit Javascript.
I haven't used GWT before and I'm getting a little lost in all of the information out there about building a complete web application.
The GWT Exporter project seems interesting, but I can't figure out how to use in my use case.
Any help is appreciated

ST-JS may be what you're looking for. In a nutshell, it's a way to compile a subset of Java into JavaScript so your Java and JavaScript code use the same API. The Java side of the tool even emulates jQuery (so you can use $(...) in Java code with code completion and type safety).

This code can't be executed in the Java VM. It's mainly a type safe way to write JavaScript code.
