The new features of the Java programming language version 1.1 include the
following:
- Inner Classes
- Anonymous Classes
- Instance Initializers
- Anonymous Array Expressions
- Class Literals
- Blank Finals and Final Locals
- The @deprecated Tag
The new Java Compiler included with the Microsoft SDK for Java 2.01 and
later includes the ability to compile code with these features plus the
following:
- Uncompressed JAR File Support
- Support @COM syntax for JActiveX users
- Support @DLL syntax for JDirect users
Installing the SDK 2.01 or later will not automatically replace the Visual
J++ compiler if a developer has Visual J++ installed. Please see the MORE
INFORMATION section to use the new compiler with Visual J++ 1.1.
MORE INFORMATION
It is possible to use these new language features with Visual J++ 1.1. You
can do this by replacing the compiler file in Visual J++ with three files
from the Microsoft SDK for Java. First, save a copy of the compiler
(Jvc.exe) from your existing Visual J++ installation. Next, copy Jvc.exe,
Jps.dll and Msjvc.dll into your Visual J++ directory. Projects will then
build using the new compiler.
