Hello,
There is : https://github.com/senny/emacs-eclim
(haven't tried it though)
Otherwise if you're able and willing to, I strongly and heartily
advise you to switch to scala (http://www.scala-lang.org/ , fully
interoperable with java) ; then you could use
https://github.com/aemoncannon/ensime which is great.
Hope that will help,
G.N
