Oracle JDeveloper and Application Development Framework 11g Release 2

Last updated: October 22, 2012 for 11.1.2.3.0

Certification and Support Matrix

This document identifies the various third party and Oracle products that are supported to work with the 11g Release 2 versions of JDeveloper and Application Development Framework (ADF). Oracle ADF may support or certify with a super set of products than required for Oracle Fusion Middleware and this document serves as a reference for those cases. Also, please see the Oracle Fusion Middleware certification documentation

The versions of JDeveloper and ADF covered in this document are:

  • Oracle JDeveloper and ADF 11g Release 2 (11.1.2.0.x)
  • Oracle JDeveloper and ADF 11g Release 2 (11.1.2.1.x)
  • Oracle JDeveloper and ADF 11g Release 2 (11.1.2.2.x)
  • Oracle JDeveloper and ADF 11g Release 2 (11.1.2.3.x)

In this document, the term Certified is used to denote a configuration that is tested in house by the Quality Assurance team. The term Supported indicates a configuration that has not been fully tested, but that Oracle believes to be functional. In both cases, customers may log bugs with Oracle Support, and the development team will evaluate them and fix them if feasible.
