Notes, JDeveloper 10.1.3.x

A. If your JDeveloper and Oracle Application Server do not have matching version numbers (for example if one is 10.1.3.0 and the other is 10.1.3.1), the following notes apply:

  • For ADF applications developed in JDeveloper 10.1.3.1 and deployed to Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.0, you need to install the ADF runtime libraries in your application server, using the ADF Installer. You can run the installer from within JDeveloper (select Tools | ADF Runtime installer) or use the standalone version.
  • Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.1 is not supported with JDeveloper 10.1.3.0.

B. For all applications, you need to reconfigure your applications to use J2SE 1.4.2 and J2EE 1.3. See the JDeveloper documentation for complete instructions.

C. For ADF applications only, you need to install the ADF runtime libraries, using the ADF Installer. You can run the installer from within JDeveloper (select Tools | ADF Runtime installer) or use the standalone version.

D. JDeveloper 10.1.3.1 is certified only with Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.3.1). If you are using JDeveloper 10.1.3.0, then you must use Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.3.0). Note the specific point release numbers.

E. Some ADF features are not supported with WebLogic 9:

  • The ADF BC deployment profile wizard does not support creating WebLogic 9 connections; a workaround is to create a WebLogic 8 connection and use that to connect to your WebLogic 9 instance.
  • ADF applications with JSP/Struts or model 1 JSP clients do not render correctly in WebLogic 9.

F. For ADF applications, see the section Deploying to WebSphere in the JDeveloper documentation.

G. For all applications, you need to reconfigure your applications to use J2SE 1.4. See the JDeveloper documentation for complete instructions.

H. No connection or direct deployment support from JDeveloper. Applicable only to ADF applications deployed from WLS console or WLST.

Application Servers Supported by JDeveloper 10g (10.1.2) 

This matrix shows application servers supported by JDeveloper 10.1.2.  The Notes section describes any restrictions or additional tasks that are required.

Application Server Name and Version Supported by JDeveloper 10g (10.1.2)?
Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.3) Yes 1
10g (10.1.2) Yes
Standalone OC4J 10g (10.1.2) Yes 2
Tomcat 4.x Yes 2
JBoss 3.2.2 Yes 2
3.0.4 No
2.4.6 Yes 2
WebLogic 8 Yes 2
7 No
6 No
WebSphere 6 Yes 3
5.1 Yes 3

Notes, JDeveloper 10.1.2

1. This configuration is supported for UIX applications only. For complete instructions on how to deploy UIX applications from JDeveloper 10.1.2 to Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.3), please see the document Deploying a 10.1.2 UIX Application to a 10.1.3.x OC4J Instance.

2. For ADF applications only, you need to install the ADF runtime libraries, using the ADF Runtime Installer. To start the Installer, select Tools | ADF Runtime Installer from the main menu in JDeveloper. Instructions for running the installer are in the JDeveloper online documentation, or click Help in the Installer.

3. The ADF runtime installer does not support installing the ADF runtime to WebSphere; you need to copy the runtime libraries by hand. ADF applications are not supported in release 10.1.2.0.1.
