If you want to write multiplatform apps, learn the Java API. If you
want to write high performance apps for a single platform, learn the
C++ API. If you are a novice, you will probably find any Java API
less "hairy" than a quirky tuned-to-one-platform C++ API and thus
easier to learn first.
Multi-platformness tends to simplify APIs.
