For interacting with the salesforce API, it is best to use a client library and not implement it all by yourself, see http://blog.palominolabs.com/2011/03/03/a-new-java-salesforce-api-library/ for an example.

Easiest way is to download cURL java wrapper like https://github.com/pjlegato/curl-java and use cURL directly in your code.

Second way is to use Runtime.getRuntime().exec("crul...") "pattern" and run curl as a normal process.
