There are two things you can do, both mostly easily to be found in the
ports tree.

1. kaffe (ftp://ftp.sarc.city.ac.uk:/pub/kaffe) is in /usr/ports/www/kaffe
   and is a project to create a java emulator and just-in-time-compiler
   that currently supports almost everything except for the graphical
   classes (but it does compile them, so for applets it's OK)

2. use netscape: you install the JDK (a.o. the classes.zip file, see 
   /usr/ports/www/jdk) set CLASSPATH, and use

   to compile:

      netscape -java sun.tools.javac.Main class2compile.java

   to run:
     
      netscape -java class2run
