I think that the now defunct dotGNU http://www.dotgnu.org/ was trying to do it, one of the nice things it left us is libjit https://www.gnu.org/software/libjit/

Sorry I'm trying to find out more but the project is a bit confusing. I found http://www.dotgnu.org/treecc_essay.html that looks of historical value (nowadays using java code generation / bytecode engineering quite often with amazing success). And of course libjit, but I'm at a loss finding out about semantic attributes and functions & typechecking and others.
