There are some tutorials that are actually targeted for Android but they basically do what you need. The difference is that they are doing a cross-compilation of the C++ code for an ARM target processor. Then there are several steps that show how to wrap the native code and load it in your java application. If you carefully take out the Android related stuff you should be able to get the needed functionality.

You cannot compile C++ to Java or to a jar.

Depending on exactly what your portability requirements are, you may be able to use some of the C++ libraries that don't interact with the ROS master through JNI.
