Abstract

The .NET platform was originally designed with the objective of enabling as many developers using different languages as possible to avail the .NET framework. To encourage Java developers to use the .NET platform, Microsoft formulated a scheme called Java User Migration Path (JUMP) to .NET. JUMP to .NET offers developers a number of paths for migrating to the .NET platform. These include tools for converting Visual J++ applications for .NET, a tool for migrating existing code entirely to the C# language, and a new language, J# , that uses the Java language syntax for creating new .NET applications. Microsoft Visual J# .NET is a development tool that can be used by developers who are familiar with the Java-language syntax to build applications and services on the .NET framework. It integrates the Java language syntax into the Visual Studio .NET shell. Microsoft Visual J# .NET also supports the functionality found in Visual J++ 6.0, including Microsoft extensions. However, Microsoft Visual J# .NET is not a tool for developing applications intended to be run on a Java Virtual Machine. Applications and services built with Visual J# .NET will run only in the . NET framework.
