Does Visual J++ version 1.1 support the Sun JDK version 1.1?

Visual J++ version 1.1 does not include the Sun Java Development Kit (JDK) version 1.1, but it does support many of its features. We didn’t include the Sun JDK 1.1 because it was still in beta when we released Visual J++ version 1.1. We don’t believe in releasing a retail product with beta code in it. We will provide a new JDK 1.1–compatible compiler as soon as it is available. Many of the features of the Sun JDK 1.1 have been in Visual J++ since version 1.0, including the international and Unicode features, the digital signing of applets, the JAR packaging capability (our .cab files), the Java Native Method Interface capabilities, and many of the performance enhancements. In addition, all of the capabilities of JavaBeans are already available through our ActiveX support.
