Well, nobody's ported Swarm to Java or C++.  However,
there has been interest in doing such.  The C++ is 
highly unlikely because of the need for dynamic schedules.

I don't know about Java.  However, there is a person who is 
interested in communications between Java and Swarm
(Christian W. Bridgers <address@hidden>).  

Otherwise, go for it!  We'd love to be able to incorporate
a Java port into the Swarm distribution.
