You can use thirdparty tools:

Re: Compiling Java

It is possible to compile Java into EXE using GCJ, however as of now you cannot make EXE's that use Swing classes from GCJ, the best approach is to use the Eclipse SWT GUI classes.

Last time I checked Java Swing has not been ported to GCJ yet, but I think there are open source projects trying to port swing functionality over so that you could compile to an EXE using Swing classes.

Btw, everything I've mentioned is free, no need to buy anything.
