Start to develop portal

Hi all
I am new to 9iAS portal. I would like to know how to start to learn and develop portals using 9iAS, any books hints..
And also I would like to know what is PDK??...Using PDK can we develop portals without installing Oracle 9iAS..Where can I find details regarding these??.
Please any help is appreciated..
Thanks a lot

Hello,
The best start will be to take a look to PortalCenter Web site for overview of the features and benefits of OracleAS Portal.
For development perspective you can use PortalStudio, this is the place where you will find all the information -sample,technical note, how tos, ...- about the PDK.

  • What's the right way to start up with Portal's dev?

    Hi to all Portals experts,
    I am really struggling to start up learning Portals and more specific their development.Here is the problem - I am a bit new in the NetWeaver  but not new in J2EE environment. I went trough all WebDynpro tutorials and really the documentation was written nice.Good hands-on approach with lots of examples and that is what I found with WebDynpro - everything well explained step by step.
    But when I started the Portal’s Tutorials I was  a bit disappointed.
    1.First of all, there is no explanation which tools one needs to start up with Portal Dev?
    I only have  SAP Netweaver Development Studio SP15 installed on my PC and I don’t have any access to R/3, CRM or other system. Is this enough to at least start to learn Portal Development or not?
    2. I realize well that at some point I will need real system to play with but , until than what useful practice I can do on my own and how?
    - Even within the WebDynpro tutorial , the very first Part :’ Define a system’ - (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/cb/f4bc3d42f46c33e10000000a11405a/frameset.htm) -‘In the portal, navigate to System Administration - System Configuration - System Landscape’
    Which Portal ? I don’t have System Administration on my NWDS SP15?Is is something I should install?unclear?
    3. My understanding is that NWDS SP15 contains EP , within its J2EE local engine , but is this EP.6.0, is this enough to develop complete Portal Application A-Z or not - unclear ?
    4.  PDK. Somewhere I read that Portal Application can be developed with either WebDynpro or with PDK. I’ve read about PDK but It is not clear if  it is Dev Kit as its name says , should it be downloaded , installed or imported into NWDS, again? And bottom line do I need PDK as a  Portal Developer, and at which point?
    I only need the starting point for Portal Develop. or some guide that should set milestones 1st ,2nd .. I would prefer the hands-on approach. If some of you  has already taken this path and can help me with your directions, links, at least how to get started, I will highly appreciate it! Thanks in advance!Regards, Bob

    Hi Bob,
    The below reply is as per my experience with Development so far:
    1> It is not necessary to have access to R/3 or any other SAP/non SAP application unless you are writing an application in connection to them.
    Example: An application which is reading data from R/3 and displaying the same in a table. Yes, in this scenario you would require access to R/3.
    2> System Administration is a role just like Home, User Administration, etc in Portal itself.
    It contains all the configuration related to System Landscape, Knowledge Menegement, etc
    If in case you have not been given this role, you may ask your System Administrator to create the required system (PCD Object). You may then use this system from your Profile (Personalize Portal) link directly.
    3> NWDS resides over Portal so you may create your own standalone application or application thats talking to the underlying Portal.
    WebDynpro is used to create UI & likewise you may build Web applications or EJB applications.
    4> PDK stands for Portal Development Kit. YUou may ask your administrator to download and assign the same to you. This would appear as a "Java Developer" named role in your portal. It contains all APIs required for Java development.
    If you do nto have this, you may still use the Javadocs provided on SDN itself.
    Depending what custom developmetn you do, depending upon the type the .par (portal archieve), .ear (Enterprise archieve), .war (web archieve) needs to be deployed in portal, so that users may access/view the custom created data.
    Hope this helps
    All the best!
    Warm Regards,
    Ritu

    Hi LCCS Developers,
    We wanted to give you a heads up that the charts (the ones you can find in the LCCS Developer Portal) will be taking a few weeks off (end of the year break type of thing).
    This will allow us to work out some kinks (related to performance, on our side, in delivering those charts to you) before bringing them back early next year (February timeframe).
    Here is what you will see in their place starting December 9th at 5PM PT:

    E) Enter code to write the string “Hello NetWeaver 04” to the response object.
    i. Enter the following code for the doContent() method: public void doContent(IPortalComponentRequest request, IPortalComponentResponse response)
    response.write("Hello NetWeaver 04");
    ii. Save changes – File > Save
    F) Create a Portal Archive file called ##-01-FirstPortalApp.par and deploy it to the portal where ## is your group number.
    i. Choose File > Export > PAR file
    ii. Click Next
    iii. Select the project 01-FirstPortalApp
    iv. Click Next
    v. Enter name 00-01-FirstPortalApp.par for the PAR file and make sure that the Deploy PAR is checked.
    vi. Enter password for configured portal deployment.
    If you have not configured the portal server for deployment then click Configure Server Settings and:
    a. Click Add
    b. Enter the following info:
    Alias
    MyPortal
    Host
    Fully qualified hostname of portal server
    Port
    Port number of portal server
    Login
    Login ID with admin or developer rights on portal server
    c. Click OK
    d. Click OK
    vii. Click Finish
    G) Test the application by executing it from within NWDS.
    i. In the Project Navigator window expand the dist > PORTAL-INF folder.

  • Order of start infrastructure and Portal - SCRIPT

    I replied to someone's query on this topic, so I thought it might be useful for others as well. The script that I wrote in June 2002 for an article in oracle magazine.
    It is simple & it works, in a way tells you status of the
    components as well.
    Put it an a file chmod to allow execute ...
    I have included the debug in the script as well.

    Have been trying a bit more and found out how to access the chart to a certain extent. It seems to be possible the change the X-Axis Values via:
    chart.axes(xlcategory).minimumscale
    chart.axes(xlcategory).maximummscale
    Are however not able to find values that really will show up, have tried numerous formats, and by using just simple numbers like for example 100 the code runs, but the X-axis values dissapears instead of changing.
    The question is if it is at all possible to then also change the actual data in the chart to show the weeks that are entered. No use of changing the axis values without changing the data for the weeks as well. Have not been able to find anything about accessing
    the data values, perhaps they are not accessible? From within MS Project it is not possible to Clock on the "edit source data" in the menu which appears when right clicking on the chart.
    Any ideas are welcome.
    Kind regards //Anders

    This seems to be some issue with wrong S/W choice between 32bit and 64 bit version.  Or could be some OS related patch missing.
    You seem to have Win 32 bit version and JDK installed is 64bit version.
    Pls confirm.

    Thanks

    Welcome to the forum!
    Whenever you post you need to provide the full sql developer that you are using and all of the details about what you are doing and the problem you are having.
    You haven't provided the version, what user you are connnecting as, what type of connection it is (normal, sysdba), the type of connection you are connecting as (thin, oci), the JDBC jar version if using one, the Oracle client or server versions.

    Dear Friends,
    I cannot start SQL Developer in Fedora Core 5 Linux Enviroment. I do not know what exactly is the problem. so Please see the Snap shot the Problem. It Refrains from inspite of it showing as if to Open. On windows it works fine.
    Snap Shot starts here

Then it all worked fine.

    Any help will be highly apprecaited!!!

    Hi
    I've got the same error starting SQL Developer 1.1.2 on mac os 10.4.9. In my case this was because I've had a blank in the path.
    I've initialy located my SQL Developer on a USB Stick with the name "no name" which was mounted on /Volumes/no name path to SQL Dev was /Volume/no name/oracle/sqldeveloper/......
    After changing the name of the stick to noname the path has changed to /Volume/noname/oracle/sqldeveloper/.....
    and then everything worked fine.
    An other hint, If you copy sqldeveloper.sh into sqldeveloper.command you may start the Developer with a double click.
    By the way, I'm using the multiplattform package of the SQL Developer and put it on a USB Stick. I'm now able to take one copy of SQL Developer and Configuration with me and start it on Mac OS and/or Windows.
