Not really.

Recent versions of VS do not support J# and J# is extremely old Java
and it generate .NET assemblies not jar/class files.

You could add msbuild exec task to call command line Java or ant
to build some Java code, but there is no value in doing that.

For Java development use an IDE intended for Java.

All you would be doing is using Visual Studio's text editor. You would
have none of the features of a Java IDE at your disposal.

for possible Java IDEs.

that went into it. Something was more important than sensory pleasure --
nobody would invent a chair or dish that smelled bad or that made horrible
noises -- why were motors invented noisy? How could they possibly be
considered complete or successful inventions with this glaring defect?
Unless, of course, the aggressive, hostile, assaultive sound actually served
to express some impulse of the owner.

You mean to be reminded about the very old days?

"Most IDEs don?t include a source code debugger. Ones I know that do
include one are: Caf?, JBuilder, VAJ (Visual Age for Java), Fort?,
Eclipse, Netbeans and IntelliJ."

"JBuilder F$LW From Codegear, bought from Inprise/Borland. Notes.
Requires 256 MB RAM (Random Access Memory) to run reasonably."

"Netbeans F Evolved into Sun Fort? then to One Studio, then to Sun
Studio. Download is 15 MB vs 85 MB for One Studio."
