jde-complete-at-point is not very robust in this incarnation. It works only
for compiled classes in jde-global-classpath and as far as I can tell, it's
still not very smart. For example, it doesn't seem to know about inherited
methods and fields.  I've gotten it to work for things like 

String z = "a"
z.len

which it will complete to z.length()

jde-complete's author, Rodrigo Reyes, and I plan to improve it as time permits.
