About Visual J++
Visual J++ was a development tool created by Microsoft in 1996 to allow developers to write Java applications for the Windows platform. It integrated with the Visual Studio environment and included Microsoft-specific extensions. Visual J++ aimed to leverage Java's popularity while promoting Windows as a primary deployment platform. However, it faced legal challenges from Sun Microsystems over Microsoft's deviations from standard Java, leading to its eventual discontinuation in 2004.
Strengths of Visual J++ included its tight integration with the Visual Studio environment, ease of use for Windows developers, and support for Microsoft-specific extensions. Weaknesses involved limited cross-platform compatibility and legal issues with Sun Microsystems over non-standard Java implementations. Competitors included Sun Microsystems' own Java Development Kit (JDK), IBM's VisualAge for Java, and Borland JBuilder.
