As far as I know, no one has made any effort to make MLton communicate
with Java.  I don't know a lot about interfacing with Java or the JVM,
but it sounds like a difficult task if you try to do it at that level.
Your best bet with MLton is to either use the C FFI or communicate at
a higher level (pipes, files, ...), or to rewrite the libraries in
SML.  Sorry I don't have a better answer.
