At configuration time, you should use option
  --with-java=DIR
where DIR is the Java SDK installation directory

The configure script will automatically try some default directory
depending on the system, but it gives up if they are not found.

You may also want to add
  --enable-interfaces=c++,java
(I currently don't recall if Java is enabled by default).
