How to create a *standalone* linux executable from java code

Question

I know that java intent is for gui and multi platform, but the problem I'm facing it how to release a java application into a linux servers, which I don't have control on, i.e. I dont know what java vm is installed if at all.

So, how do i compile this into a true standalone linux exe, do not assume any pre installed package on the target linux.

public class MyTest {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        System.out.println("You passed in: " + args[0]);

    }
}

You need to specify as a requirement an installed JRE.
Otherwise you would need to deliver a JRE yourself as part of the deliverable application
