Problem with jdeveloper

Question

Hello, i'm a newbie trying to learn developing ADF applications using JDeveloper 11. I'm currently following the tutorial :
http://st-curriculum.oracle.com/obe/jdev/obe11jdev/ps1/ria_application/developriaapplication_long.htm
19. In the Application Navigator Right-click AppModel and select Run to invoke the application module tester. This is a small Swing based application that allows you to test the ADF Business Components you have just created.
I have the problem with this step... When i Run the AppModel nothing happens... The process starts in the run manager but the program does not actually run... Does it have to do with the dafault run target?
Thnks

Well, by default, if you click the "Run" button from the toolbar with no active file in the editor, it will attempt to run the Default Run Target for the current project, and if there is not one set, JDev will prompt you for one. I'm sure you can complete the tutorial without completing that step, but if I were you, at some point, I'd have a go at the business components tester. I use it all the time to make sure my model works - and it's a good debugging tool when something isn't working and you're not sure if its the UI part or the model part - you can test the model independently.
Good luck,
John
