I assume your geometries are stored in shape files.

Possibility 1, using SQL)
Use a spatial sql extender like postgis, import your shape files into  
sql tables and create a query using a sql statement with spatial  
predicates (st_contains, st_intersects)

Possibility 2, using JAVA)
Read your polygons from a shape file.
Read your point from the shape file and create ONE Multpoint JTS geometry.
Intersect the Multipoint geometry with each polygon.
The result of the intersection is a Multipoint geometry containing all  
points within the polygon.

Hope this helps
