Oracle JDeveloper and Application Development Framework 11g
Release 2

Last updated: June 4, 2014

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)
• Oracle JDeveloper and ADF 11g Release 2 (11.1.2.4.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.

Operating Systems

The following operating systems are supported for the JDeveloper IDE. Note, the Oracle ADF runtime components are certified as part of Fusion Middleware.

Notes:

• JDK 7 supported added in 11.1.2.4.0.
  • There is a known, serious issue with this version of JDeveloper running with Oracle JDK 1.7 Update 25. For more information, see the issue for JDK 1.7 Update 25 (16710919) in the release notes,
  • JDeveloper bundles Integrated WLS 10.3.5, which does not support JDK 7. To use JDK 7 for JDeveloper and Integrated WLS, you can install WLS 10.3.6 separately and create an "Integrated Server" connection to it from JDeveloper.
• 32 bit JDK required for profiling features.
• For JDK 6, update 39 or later is recommended; for JDK 7, update 10 or later is recommended
• On Mac OS 10.5 Java for Mac OS X 10.5 Update 8 or later is recommended, on Mac OS 10.6 Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 3 or later is recommended

Databases

Oracle distinguishes between the database development features of the JDeveloper IDE (SQL Worksheet, online and offline database, database modeling, etc) and the Oracle ADF runtime libraries, notably ADF Business Components, in terms of supported databases.

For third party databases, JDeveloper is certified with the vendor-provided JDBC drivers. ADF is certified with the same drivers as the rest of FMW runtime components, namely the WebLogic (Data Direct) JDBC drivers. See also the  Oracle Fusion Middleware certification documentation.

Application Servers

Refer to the Oracle Fusion Middleware certification documentation for more information regarding ADF (or JRF) support for third party application servers.

Notes:

• Installing the ADF 11.1.2 runtime libraries on WebLogic 10.3.5 or 10.3.6 requires applying the ADF 11.1.2 patches on top of an existing Application Development Runtime installation of 11.1.1.5 or 11.1.1.6. ADF 11.1.2.0 and 11.1.2.1 are patches on top of Application Development Runtime 11.1.1.5.0. ADF 11.1.2.2+ are patches on top of Application Development Runtime 11.1.1.6.0.
