..Around the same time, Sun Microsystems created Java. There are two aspects to the technology. From the language point of view, Java was designed to be a modern object-oriented language that did away with the complexities of C++ around memory management and bug-prone features like multiple inheritance, unhygienic macros, and so on. The other interpretation, Java as a platform, brought a runtime with a rich library to write enterprise applications that run on various platforms and target various application models both for the client and the Web. A major downside to the Java strategy at the time was its tight coupling to a single language, making it hard to interoperate with existing code or to reuse existing programming skills in different languages while still targeting the same underlying runtime and libraries. So to make Java programming available on the Windows platform, a product called Visual J++ was created together with a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) implementation, a port of the libraries and bridges to the world of Windows in the form of the Windows Foundation Classes (WFC). 1. Anybody really had such a weird task/project at work that required you to code with VJ++? :) 2. And Windows Foundation classes? Is that MFC? (For a moment I read it as WCF, I was clueless about the MJ++ bridge to the WCF. haha)

I remember when it came out, I think it packaged as a separate CD from the main Visual Studio installation discs originally. I never used it though. I thought it was a short lived and killed off only a few versions later?

Nope: Sue! Sue and be damned! - Wikipedia[^] So it kinda escaped into being .NET, but probably not a lot left of the original...

It came, they got into fued, it died and C# was born. I personally think it was good to invest in a newer, in-house programming language—C#, although Microsoft now has many languages of their own, TypeScript being another one. But the thing is, at least C# is free now. ;-)

My guess is that you are reading a book from Packt Publishing. :| Because the info is close to correct, but it is not quite precise in language.

I don't think that sentence means it created bridges (converted code) to WFC (whatever that is). I think it was trying to say that it was an analog to MFC or whatever. What book or article are you reading? When I read things like that I move to another source. I don't think it is quite right, but either way it isn't very clear either.

Java I viewed like VB more going on than it told it was doing and little chance of a true binary. I'm an embedded guy who wanders into Windows occasionally. While the you can run it 'embedded' you need hardware to run a JVM which typically ups the price of hardware, so nice in theory!

But soon java did pickup & much of user gadgets of 2000s were actually running them, if I'm right. And I guess Android is just a modern day extension to what was trying to happen with Java on devices in 1990s/2000s.

And JavaCard... Edit: I mean yes, in order to make JavaCard a thing, they took out I/O streams, Garbage collection etc. But still, it runs on a string of wire powered by radio waves!
Java Card still it requires an overhead of a JVM, puts to much space between the Metal and application...
