Besides C# vs. Java debate, IDE debate is probably another hot topic in the
mail list. It is funny that I saw both of them in one week.
There is no definite answer to which one is better, as far as I have read.
However, to your question about why someone uses J++, I know one thing is
that you can build COM object to it and making it part of ASP server. I
have a friend hosting a personal ASP server for a MUD game. He builds the
COM objects that can connect to the MUD server and download the on line user
information. To him, a Java Developer who doesn't have much money to afford
an advanced server (at least not yet), a ASP server with COM support is
quite a good solution. Later, he can swith to JSP server and still use most
of the code.
I think this situation might also apply to some business.

Why is everyone using J++??? There are lots of alternatives ...
Metrowerks Codewarrior, Symantec Cafe (specialy for the
UsertInterface), JBuilder, and so on... why do you want to be catch
by the hand of Microsoft?
(CodeWarriror is my favorite.)
