Hello!

I don't gonna explain the details of difference between java and c++.
Do you wanna write a tricky system driver or a Fix handler?
Do you need a offset based access to the memory?
I guess you've caught my advice.
Beyond that java offers you reflection. It comes very handy then you do a mapping on your domain objects. Surely, it's expensive. But It's nice as a first step. You can replace it with dynamically generated bytecode in further versions. See asm or whatever similar.
Due to Sun Hotspot JVM and especially to aggressive virtual method injection some java code runs more faster then c++ statically compiled version. Rough picture is that the performance of both implementation is similar.
Java bytecode is secure. You will never face mysterious core dump problem.

The clue is your developer team.

sincerely,
alexandre efremov
