As far as I remember, GHDL is in Ada95, so a library for interfacing between Java and GHDL has to be created. I think the best tool in these situations would be to use the Alliance tool http://www-asim.lip6.fr/recherche/alliance/ which reads in a standard VHDL file, generates optimized netlists, does parasitic extraction and place/route using very simple cmmand line options.
