In practical terms there is no Java support for Delphi, and Delphi has no 
support for Java.  OK, there is some access to native code from Java, but 
its application is rather limited and it breaks the 'write once, run 
anywhere' concept.

Java uses the Java language to create bytecode for the java Virtual 
machine.  JavaVM will run on a wide range of platforms.  Delphi uses 
Object Pascal to create a pure Windows executable, which will run only on 
Microsoft's proprietary operating systems.
