Free AOT Java compiler

Question

Does anyone know some free AOT Java compiler? I have found just one - http://gcc.gnu.org/java/.

Users don't need to install JRE, faster execution, bytecode protection. So why not? — dede, Oct 27 '10 at 03:12
Users won't need to install a JRE, but it won't execute faster or protect anything. — Amir Afghani, Oct 27 '10 at 18:51

As of now, it fully supports Java SE 8 and the Standard Edition is free (but only supports 32-bit Windows and Linux.)

GCJ , as you've already noted, is probably your best option. If you're looking for something that runs on Windows you'll need to setup a Cygwin or MinGW environment that runs the GCC.

JNC is an old one that may still work, it was built for Java 1.5 and is based on the GCC.

Not sure how finished it is, but this project uses LLVM and can AOT compile Java and .NET
