In this chapter, you saw how Microsoft's implementation of J# includes Java language and JDK 1.1.4 functionality while being flexible enough to take advantage of the features of .NET. In particular, you saw how the J# compiler allows you to write Java-language code that can consume .NET components and how the JDK 1.1.4 object hierarchy has been integrated into the .NET Framework Class Library.

This chapter also presented a brief comparison between J2EE (the framework often used for building enterprise applications in Java) and .NET. It showed how .NET addresses the requirements of enterprise applications. In later chapters, you'll learn about how to implement the individual elements of an enterprise application using J# with .NET.
