Java is a programming environment written by Sun Microsystems. It is more than a programming language--it is more like an operating system. Screen readers, in general, don't work well in Java, if at all. If a program is written in "J-class" Java, it will be completely inaccessible. If a program is written in "Swing class" Java, it might be accessable using a program called Java Access Bridge.
