"make" is integrated with emacs, in that M-x compile runs make as the default, and M-x next-error allows you to step through the errors and jump to the source line with the error. This works for C, C++, java, etc., and next-error works for grep and occur. You could modify emacs so that M-x compile runs javac, but learning make is better in the long run.
