Like Java, it supports component software much better than its predecessors. Compared to Java, it is easier to learn and allows to produce more efficient code. Component Pascal is syntactically clearly in the Pascal family, while Java is in the C family. But this is a relatively superficial difference. Among other things, safety also implies automatic garbage collection.
Garbage collection is necessary to avoid memory leaks and, more importantly, dangling pointers.
As a result, both languages can use virtually the same run-time system. Component Pascal is more efficient than Java. Depending on the application, this can have a measureable impact on efficiency. For example, consider the Component Pascal method call font. In Java, there is no efficient way to express this simple statement.
