How to do prototyping with JDeveloper 10.1.3 ?

Hi all,
We need to do screen layout prototyping in our apps development phases, this is done by the business analyst to the customer for screen confirmation, no database yet, so no ADF objects also.
I have tried the approach described on ADF Dev Guide chapter 21: Adding ADF Bindings to Existing Pages
But the problem with this method : no data can be displayed
Has any body a better approach to prototype with JDev ?
Thank you very much,
xtanto

Xtanto,
JDeveoper does not generate sample data. The options I see are:
a) populate the UI components with data from a mnaged bean. This way you don't have to throw away you work and simply change the value binding to use ADF bindings
b) Use an ADF binding that you base on e.g. a set of JavaBeans to simulate the data source. Note that this approach s easier to do if you plan to build on TopLink and EJB because in this case - assuming the method signatures remain the same, you can swap out the sample data by a search and replace in teh meta data files. The disadvantage here is that search and replace is risky to do and you need to understand the later data structure. For ADF BC I wouldn't recommend this approach at all.

How to use CVS with JDeveloper

Hi all!
I'm starting a new project and I would like to know how to use CVS with JDeveloper. This is my first project where I will have two more people working with me and I don't know what the better approach is. Should I use CVS that come with JDeveloper (option Internal to Oracle JDeveloper 10g) or should I configure an external repository? In both cases, I don't know what I have to do to have CVS working properly with JDeveloper. Actually I tried to create a new CVS connection in CVS navigator (using the access method Password Server), but when I test I receive the message: Could not open connection to CVS server: general socket failure, sure I must doing something wrong.
I'm using JDeveloper 10.1.3.0.4
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for you help John!
I installed cvsnt and when I try to create a new CVS connection inside JDeveloper I receive the message: authorization failed: server adminf29786.dixamico.com.br rejected access to /Diversos/DownLoad/CVS/usr/local/cvsroot for user JMartins
I using pserver method and JMartins is my user in windows
There is something that I'm curious about, when I was installing CVSNT I didn't configure any user and password, is there any default user/password?
Thanks!

How to use BC4J with JDeveloper 9i in a Team

Hello
I'm not sure if I'm to stupid, but to say the truth I didn't found the clue how to share a BC4J Application between several develeopers. Maybe someone can give me a hint.
That's my situation:
Our team is going to develop a web application using BC4J and BC4J-JSP, nothing special I think.
But my problem is, that BC4J and especially the wizards refer to a lot of different files. Even simple changes often result in multiple files being changed in different parts of the project.
Creating a view link between view objects in two packages for example changes the view objects in both packages. Also the project (.jpr) file or several "BC4J.xcfg" files are changed very often.
So it is not easy to find parts of code from which I can say they are owned by one developer and others which are owned by another. Most often, if you have to merge the work of different developers, you have to edit the BC4J-XML-Files using an external editor. Or did someone find a better way? Please tell me!
So, what is the best way to share code between developers?
Should I partition the application by packages?
- advantage:
it allows a fine partitioning
- disadvantages:
it has the great danger that BC4J makes changes in other packages which will be overseen when merging.
Should I create a projects for each developer and distribute code between the projects using libraries?
- advantage: no unseen changes will happen, as the libraries are readonly.
- disadvantages: no view links between view objects in different projects (Libraries) are possible! Also a lot of "load errors" can occure when updating a library, which have to be manually corrected in the dependent projects.
Are source code management systems a real help in this problem or do they just "manage" the problem? I already tried SCM and PVCS but was not very happy with the way of working. As JDeveloper is not "really easy" to use with theese tools.
So I would like to get any hints how other developers are dealing with this problem. Are you using BC4J with JDeveloper 9i in a team? Please tell me how do it and how you have partitioned your application.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I'm not sure whether my answer is good enough for you, but it might help.
First of all, you have to use JDev 9.0.3, because 9.0.2 has big problems with associations/view links between objects in different projects.
Creating a view link between view objects in two packages for example changes the view objects in both packages. Also the project (.jpr) file or several "BC4J.xcfg" files are changed very often.This is not completely true in 9.0.3, as you may choose not to create an accessor in the imported object (and usually you don't need it neither!). As for bc4j.xcfg, there is a trick: define a "standard" database connection name to use all over your project! This will prevent modifying these files all the time!
Should I create a projects for each developer and distribute code between the projects using libraries?
- advantage: no unseen changes will happen, as the libraries are readonly.
- disadvantages: no view links between view objects in different projects (Libraries) are possible! Also a lot of "load errors" can occure when updating a library, which have to be manually corrected in the dependent projects.I would say, projects for each application component, which by chance will be managed by a single developer at a time.
As for the disadvantages, in 9.0.3 you are able to properly create associations and links using read-only objects. Hopefully, the release version will solve some generation inconsistencies...
Concerning the errors that occur when modifying a library, this might be balanced by the relative independence of the components... If you are able to develop following the dependency tree, you will not meet the problem very often.
Are source code management systems a real help in this problem or do they just "manage" the problem? I already tried SCM and PVCS but was not very happy with the way of working. As JDeveloper is not "really easy" to use with theese tools.Indeed, I do not have a SCMS really able to manage merges in the BC4J XML files... We rather try not to arrive there!
So I would like to get any hints how other developers are dealing with this problem. Are you using BC4J with JDeveloper 9i in a team? Please tell me how do it and how you have partitioned your application.I really hope that my hints will help.

Adrian

How to enable JAAS with jdeveloper

hi all,
I start reading about JAAS and previously i developed an web application and now i want to implement XML based JAAS in it i searched different articles which shows JAAS with DB support, can any one mention any good article with baby steps for xml based jaas in jdeveloper,
I first to understand JAAS with babay steps then i will implement it in my application.
A hello world type of tutorial with jdeveloper.
Thanks & Regards
imran

Hi,
I started a how-to about using the JAAS provider for container managed authentication. But this is about using container managed security with custom JAAS login modules.
If you want to natively code in JAAS, all you need to do is to ensure you set the jaasMode in the aplication's orion-application.xml file. See the OC4J security guide, which is a part of teh OracleAs documentation available nline at otn.oracle.com --> documentation
The XML provider is the dafult provider configured in OC4J and can have user and groups configured as well as JAAS permissions for each of them. You specify the JAAS LoginModule in the system-jazn-data.xml file of the OC4J container and access the login configuration name within your application as part of the created JAAS LoginContext. Once you have this, you obtain a authenticated subject with the user Principals. Using this principals you can now perform check permissions on the AccessController context.

How to integrate requirements with JDeveloper

It is widely considered helpful to be able to track certain parts of the code or of a model back to the original requirements.
As I understand, JDeveloper does not deal with bare requirements at all, so I have to maintain them in some other software or a bunch of documents. When I begin designing a business application in JDeveloper, how do I link this design and the resulting code to the original requirements?
<ul><li> Any thoughts?</li>
<li>Any best practices?</li>
<li>Any reaction from the JDeveloper developers?</li>
<li>Or am I just getting it wrong?</li>
</ul>
Thank you for your responses,
Matt

So JavaDoc and TODO-like tags seem to be the only ways to reference requirements. I can imagine this requires a lot of discipline in large teams.
Shay, could you provide me with some more information, maybe a presentation about the planned ALM features of the next release? I'm working on my diploma/master thesis at an oracle partner company, comparing the development features of JDeveloper and ADF to the state of research. As the current version is behind on support for proper requirements management and change management, I'd like to give a perspective on your future developments.
Vik, the idea is to be able to trace a certain requirement ("user must be able to alter limit at any time") to all affected parts of the code and vice versa, so that when the requirement is (about to) being changed, the impact can be evaluated and all necessary changes can be made easily. Also, quality management can trace tricky code back to the reqiurements and replan them. This is of most interest to companies with a rather structured software engineering process.

How to use ant with Jdeveloper 11g

Hello, as we develop our app with ADF Faces & EJB 3.0 we are using tomcat 6.x + openEJB 3.0 as a sort of app server. So we need to build application archive 2 differrent methods (collapsed war for tomcat and ear for Jdev's integrated WLS). Besides, some xml files need to be modificated depending on target server. So we are going to use ant to build archives.
My questions:
- Where should I copy built archive for deployment on integrated WLS (should I copy it in ant's target or Jdev can do it for me)? Or there is another way to do the following: when one presses Run button on a page ant builds an archive for local WLS and then app is deployed and the page is opened in a new browser tab (just like default Jdev behaviour)?
- Where can I find tutorial on integration of Jdev & ant?

Here is a good example [http://biemond.blogspot.com/2009/04/weblogic-jdeveloper-ant-tasks.html]

9iAS with JDeveloper

Hi, i am new to Oracle9iAS
I would like to ask if there is any configuration guide for 9iAS online and how to use 9iAS with JDeveloper to deploy EJB.

best start is to use OTN (Oracle Technology Network at http://otn.oracle.com ). There you find a menu item called "documentation". if you follow the links, you will find all information you'll need. for 9iAS as an example you could try http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/ias/doc_library/90200doc_otn/core.htm , for 9ijdeveloper you could try the online help at http://otn.oracle.com/jdeveloper-preview/help/

How to start with JDeveloper?

As a straight A student of Computer Science, I put my hands on database development of an information system project for our CS faculty this summer. JDeveloper is used as the IDE for such project.
I have learnt Java 2 and something about Oracle database in my courses. Now, after reading the product introduction and a short online course outline in iDeveloper2001, I have a brief idea about it. But since I can not afford much, how to learn more about it? Could you offer me some advices?
Thanks a lot!

The online users guide and documentation is the best place to
start to learn how to use JDeveloper.

How to create Application Workspace with Jdeveloper 10g 1.3.2?

Following the instructions in "Developing and Using ADF Faces Skins", I am trying to create an Application Workspace.
The instruction says: "In JDeveloper, create a new Application workspace and name it - ADFFaces_skin_sample"
I can not find the way to create Application workspace with Jdeveloper 10g 1.3.2.
Because when I click FILE==>New I got "New Gallery--Application" in left, in right only got "Application, Empty project, File, Java Class, Java Interface". There is no "workspace" item.
I try to use Jdeveloper 10g 1.3.1, got same result.
I found other ADF Skin training samples. All of them asked to create Application Workspace. But the Jdeveloper version used by all those samples were earlier than 10g 10.1.3.2
Please let know how to create "Application Workspace"?

What used to be "Application Workspace" in 10.1.2 is "Application" in 10.1.3.2

How to integrate Jboss seam frame work with Jdeveloper 11

hi
Really i don't know how to integrate Jboss seam frame work with JDeveloper, actually my current project implementation was started with Netbeans, but i am planning to suggest my customer , use JDeveloper.
please provide the solution are any information, how to integrate the JBoss Seam frame work.
Thanks
Lakshmi

Hi,
JDeveloper 11 does not yet provide documentation about the integration with Seam (not only the technology but also the documentation is in early preview stage). However, this is an interesting question you ask and I'll follow up to see if we can get some document out in short term.

How to connect MS SQL Server 2000 with JDeveloper 11g

Shay or other knowledgeable folks,
Is there a way to utilize the wizard for "Business Tier > ADF Business Components > Business Components from Tables" for SQL Server 2000, 2005 or 2008. I can successfully execute sql via java programmatically or import a table from SQL Server with "Business Tier > ADF Business Components > Entity Object" wizard, but the Business Components from Tables simply doesn't see any tables under any schema. Without the "Business Components from Tables", i don't get the referential constraints imported into the application and to code all those from scratch is just not as elegant. So far i have only utilized the sql server jdbc driver from Microsoft (versions, 1.1, 1.2 and 2.0). Is there an alternative client that i need to use to enable selecting tables from that "Business Components from Tables" wizard. Is this a limitation of SQL Server, the jdbc driver or the wizard itself? Did anybody else experience the same issues? I am using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.0.1 against SQL Server 2005 (currently)
Thanks,
Andy

How can I use jad decompiler with Jdeveloper ?

I want to use jad decompiler with JDeveloper .
What should I do ?
I also want jdeveloper can set break point in source code that decompiled for debugging .
If Jdeveloper dose n't have Jad Extension .
Do you have any other decompiler that can be integrated with JDeveloper ?
thanks in advance

In JDeveloper 10.1.2, I put the following line in jdev.conf:
AddVMOption -Djcncmd=c:/progra~1/decomp/jad.exe -b -ff -nl -p -pi99999 -space -t2 -lnc -noinner
Use at your own risk, though. It works nicely 9 times out of 10, but for some classes it seems to 'freeze' JDeveloper and you have to kill the jdev.exe process. I'm sure it has something to do with the command line options to jad.exe, but I've not been able to identify the problem.
If debugging is your goal, if I'm not mistaken JAD is not able to recreate source files where every statement is on the same line number as in the original file, so step-by-step debugging is a no-no. If you know of any way to use JAD so that is does put each statement on the correct line, I'll be interested!

How to create a stand alone app with Jdeveloper?

Hi,
I have a created an application with JDeveloper using the ADF framework. It's a simple frontend to some database tables giving the user the possibility to create and update records.
Is it possible to create a stand-alone application from JDeveloper without having to install any application server? I have tried to follow the documentation but somehow I only find descriptions of web enabled applications.
That's not what I want. I want a (windows) application that can 'talk' to the database. Would be great to have just a .jar file to deploy to the users computer.
Is this possible with JDeveloper? Or am I totally wrong?
Thanks for any help!
Bruno

You don't need an OC4J.
You just need to make sure the ADF libraries you are using are on the classpath of your application. (Your default JAR won't contain them).
Have a look at the command line that JDeveloper uses to run your project (it is in the log file) - copy paste this into a command line and you should be able to run your code from outside JDeveloper.
Read more on this in the online help under the deployment to JAR file chapter and possibly the webstart part.
