I use the following (very minimal) tools:
1. Etags for navigation. While it's not convenient to update tag tables
frequently, it's rarely needed for me. I usually generate a single tag
table for a whole project instead of a separate one for each module. It
allows to quickly find a class/method and I'm fine with it.
2. Dired with "-R" for each sub-module. That allows to manage files and
quickly find files within one module.
3. Little self-written module which allows to add and reorder imports
with completion based on current module's Maven dependencies and current
module's classes. For the module's own classes, it just finds *.java
files, so no inner class support.
4. Emacs-w3m for javadoc viewing.
5. jdb (via GUD) for debugging (very rarely).
I also read that malabar-mode is good, but it didn't work on Cygwin when
I tried it.
