You're pretty much out of luck.  You could try getting the backwards
compatible collections stuff from the sun Java site for InfoBus.  There is a
version of the collection classes that should work on a Java 1.1.(5ish) vm
which is what J++ is.  That won't address other post 1.1 features that
biojava may depend on.  BTW, even the new J# (J++ +) is still a 1.1 VM so I
don't expect this will ever get addressed by MSoft, probably due to the
Sun/M$ lawasuit.  Someone tell me again how we all "won" based on how the
suit got settled. 

If you're just looking for an capable IDE to use that doesn't have expensive
licensing attached take a look at NetBeans (http://www.netbeans.org) It just
might do the trick.
