What I am looking for is to set up a jdk environment where the source
code is ecrypted at the file level. This requires javac to be able to
en-/decrypt the source files. For further protection, the jvm would need
such support as well.

You can either do this with JCE, see

If your files are short, and you want a lightweight solution that uses
public key cryptography without needing the JCE library installed, see
