Java and J++
Hi Guys, I have to work in java. Writing. java files and codes and classess. . . I have always been usign the JDK1. x from Sun Java. I have been working C using Micorosoft Visual C++, which has a very nice interface and easier to use.
Hi Guys,
I have to work in java. Writing .java files and codes and classess...
I have always been usign the JDK1.x from Sun Java.
I have been working C using Micorosoft Visual C++, which has a very nice interface and easier to use. I came across Visual J++ by Microsoft.
Can I work with Visual J++ for my java files. It would be the same as compiling in JDK.
Basically I want to know if J++ is for java and I can work on it to make my java program.
Thanks

Hi,
There is a setting in Visual J++ that must be left off (it's off by default) if you want to be 100% compatible with the Java standard. I can't remember what the name of the setting is, but Microsoft does give you a pop-up warning when you turn it on. It's used to take advantage of Window's built-in functions - it makes the applications faster than pure Java ones, but it also makes them platform dependent to Windows. If you don't use this feature, then Visual J++ can do everything you would do with any other professional Java package.
In Windows XP, you have to update J++ to get it to work. Microsoft has the information on their Knowledge Base.
Hope this gives you a bit more info -

hey,
I wouldn't use Visual J++ even though it's cool. The reason is that compatibility is not ensured using Microsoft's Java compiler because they put in a lot of proprietary stuff in there. My suggestion is to get a hold of VisualCafe from WebGain. I used to use J++, but i don't use it anymore since MS lost the case that SUN made against them (which is why they dont' make J++ anymore). MS's answer to not being able to make Java compilers is C#, which is sort of like Java, but NOT. heh
