ADF Faces for Dummies - 1: Install Oracle ADF Faces and get ready to code?

Jump to Comments

a) Download

To create J2EE application using Oracle ADF Faces, you need an IDE called Oracle JDeveloper and nothing else.

Oracle JDeveloper(JDev) is an IDE just like the famous JBuilder (actually it was originated from JBuilde’s early version). But the difference is that JDeveloper is free. You can download the JDev’s latest version from Oracle’s OTN website.

There are 3 flavors you can choose to download: Studio Edition, J2EE Edition, Java Edition. Please choose the J2EE Edition. It includes the ADF libraries and does not overloaded with other Oracle proprietary toolset in the Studio Edition.

b) Install

After downloaded the zip file, to install, you need to first unzip the file to a directory you like. Then, …… it’s done.
