<BERND REPLIES>

Delphi client server version is powerful.

I would like to use JBuilder.

J++ is good for Applications if you have time to learn WFC.

JAVA is too slow. C++ is 'the' language today.

Pointers and references to types give C++ the edge over other languages.

Flexibilty with C++, no one paradigm is is forced on the user. As a
multipurpose programming language C++, I can write Object Oriented ,
Abstract data types or Structured programs.

The ability of C++ to abstract the problem domain coupled with its powerful
low-level support. I can write directly to the bios interupts. C++ allows
inline assembly and linking with assemble object files.

Visual C++ with Microsoft Foundation Classes allows me to use MFC and also
mix Win32 API calls in the same source files.

After 7 years of C and C++, I think C++ will remain the language I use.

I like your web sites.
