How to generate script code in java?

Question

What is a good way to generate code from Java?

I have a visual FlowChart app, and want to integrate some code generation for specific graphs. So, I have mostly some objects (with names) and some connections between them (conditions).

I want these visual representation to transform in a specific type of scripting language.

Is there anything in java so that I can somehow define a template to generate my script? Eg tell the template what properties to take from the visual objects, and how to arrange them in the output language?

You can try Apache Velocity:

The Apache Velocity Engine is a free open-source templating engine.

There is a comparison between FreeMarker and Velocity here.
