Best java tools for emacs

Question

I'm a long-time emacs user, and I'm now working about 1/2 time in Java.

What are the best emacs libraries for

1. Debugging Java
2. Code Completion/Intellisense
3. Javadoc browsing

?

Answer 1

I've used JDEE on several projects. It handles Code Completion. I've never used it for debugging or browsing docs, but it's a big step up from a basic text editor.

Answer 2

I've had good success with jdibug for debugging Java code with Emacs.

Answer 3

For javadoc I found http://javadochelp.sourceforge.net/index.html to be the best.
