This is really a tough subject because what someone considers an advantage someone else might not.

I can tell you what Java does not have that C++ does.

No global variables
No pointers
No support for mulitple inheritence
No support for templates
Cannot overload operators
No preprocessor

Now like I said some people may thinks these are disadvantages and others advantages. For me C++ gives you enough rope to hang yourself if your not careful, and Java gives you less rope.
