Hi Bill,

with some modifications, the Java support works just fine. I just have some 
minor issues which I need to address.

First I tought about doing that, but getting it to work in CMake made more 
sense do me. I is especally easier to work with CMake functions cause auf the 
dependencies then doing everything with Modules which provide functions for 
the Java language.

Here are my modifications to the Java files:

This is still work in progress but it works just fine atm. The only thing is 
that is is ugly to get the OBJECT_DIR :)
