I did not understand.
Are you saying once I compiled my code with J++ I can not use it with
anything else except Microsoft JVM?
Wrong.
I developed a lot of servlet on J++ and then move compiled files on AS400.
And they are working perfectly.
J++ gives me conditional compilation (i.e. #ifdef DEBUG ...) So I can have
debug version and release version.
Apparently that then I will not be able compile this code with any other
tool. But if I want to I can not use that MS J++ extension and in Options of
J++ I can even set checkbox that I do not want to use them and compiler will
generate warnings.
So I do not pay any price for using J++ except I have an IDE I like and I
have language extension which I think standard Java is lacking.
