Xcode (free!) from Apple supports both C++ and Java (and Objective-C). I'd recommend Java over C++ to start with - pretty easy to move between them once you're good at programming and debugging in general.

Java is much 'simpler' in the sense that you don't have to worry about stuff like memory management, more 'powerful' in the sense that you can do very complex tasks easily (there are also tons of APIs for things like cell phone games and web server development). It is also generally slower that C++.
C++ is much 'simpler' in the sense that coding is generally very straightforward, and more 'powerful' in the sense that you can do all sorts of things you can't do with java. It is generally faster.
C++'s biggest downside (which may be an upside depending on the situtation) is manual memory management, which may make code buggier if you're not careful. Learn both, between the two there isn't much you can't do.

both of them have the equal priority.
But java is pure object oriented programming. and for all the application java is well suitable, because there are many classes and packages available for all the applications like networking. Both of them are very easier and tough. It depends on ourself. My Conclusion java is best for all. C++ is best for begineers of object oriented programming and machine dependent programming or middle level programming. So you learn C++ first and then Java.

C++ Is better Then Java, Nearly All mainstream use C++

use VB6, C, C# or C++. :) or if you want a more powerful, but complicated to-build apps, use Java or J2EE ^_______^
If you want to build a dynamic website, i suggest u use PHP. It's easy to use, and very powerful... for webs... but for com apps, or if you want a much easier programming, use Visual Basic ;)
I hope this helps...
btw, u can use C++ in MAC, or Java... ^__^

just google c++ vs Java, i found a wealth of information (though some of it was advertising for trying to put one over the other)

Java is much more powerfull than C++ but c++ is much easier to use.
