26-691: With JDeveloper, Oracle has aimed to simplify application development by focusing on providing a visual and declarative approach to application development in addition to building an advanced coding-environment. Oracle JDeveloper integrates with the Oracle Application Development Framework ( Oracle ADF ) - an end-to-end Java EE -based framework that further simplifies application development. The core IDE exposes an API that other teams in Oracle use to build extensions to JDeveloper. BPEL , Portal, Business Intelligence and other components of

52-467: A Java framework for building enterprise applications . It provides visual and declarative approaches to Java EE development. It supports rapid application development based on ready-to-use design patterns , metadata -driven and visual tools. Based on the MVC architecture . Oracle ADF can support any combination of the following: The Oracle JDeveloper free Integrated Development Environment provides

78-528: A bidirectional binding to a POJO's property: The definition of the POJO can be as follows: Because of the JavaBean naming conventions the single "someProperty" reference can be automatically translated to the "getSomeProperty()" (or "isSomeProperty()" if the property is of Boolean type ) method for getting a value, and to the "setSomeProperty(String)" method for setting a value. The lombok library allows to change

104-470: A POJO is a Java object not bound by any restriction other than those forced by the Java Language Specification; i.e. a POJO should not have to However, due to technical difficulties and other reasons, many software products or frameworks described as POJO-compliant actually still require the use of prespecified annotations for features such as persistence to work properly. The idea is that if

130-700: A graphical interface for creating data-management applications using ADF. Oracle also offers Eclipse based tooling for ADF in Oracle Enterprise Pack For Eclipse. Implementers can deploy Oracle ADF applications on Java EE -compliant containers . Oracle WebLogic and IBM WebSphere are officially supported. Users of the free ADF Essentials edition can buy support for these applications on GlassFish. Oracle Corporation has marketed parts of Oracle ADF since 1999 — specifically ADF Business Components — then known as "JBO" and later as "BC4J" ("Business Components for Java"). The current ADF architecture with

156-431: A no-argument constructor , and allows access to properties using getter and setter methods that follow a simple naming convention. Because of this convention, simple declarative references can be made to the properties of arbitrary JavaBeans. Code using such a declarative reference does not have to know anything about the type of the bean, and the bean can be used with many frameworks without these frameworks having to know

182-403: A rich set of coding features including visual and non-visual utilities that provide different views of the code. The software provides dialogs that guide the use of Java EE components. For example, JDeveloper provides a visual WYSIWYG editor for HTML , JSP , JSF , and Swing . The visual editor allows developers to modify the layout and properties of components visually: the tool re-generates

208-523: A third-party application-server can purchase an ADF runtime license at their local Oracle sales office. Users can develop and test Oracle ADF applications free of charge exclusively within Oracle JDeveloper. Oracle Corporation purchased WebLogic in June 2008, and thus no longer regards it as a third-party application-server, so ADF is included in every WebLogic license. Supported customers can get access to

234-451: A web service. JDeveloper generates the associated WSDL (Web Services Descriptive Language) document and related JAX-RPC components. JDeveloper is free proprietary software for development and deployment. Oracle ADF has a runtime license when deployed outside of an Oracle Application Server. Oracle Application Development Framework In computing , Oracle Application Development Framework , usually called Oracle ADF , provides

260-478: Is a free to develop and deploy packaging of the key core technologies of Oracle ADF. See the license terms for Oracle ADF Essentials: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/licenses/adf-essentials-license-1837221.html For the "full" Oracle ADF: The Oracle Application Server licence includes a component for a license fee for Oracle ADF. This means that all users who have purchased an Oracle Application Server licence may use Oracle ADF for free. Users who want to deploy ADF to

286-554: The Oracle platform all build their design-time tools on top of JDeveloper. To accommodate to Sun Microsystems (and thus NetBeans ) acquisition versions released after 2012 are sharing significant code with NetBeans platform. The same IDE platform also serves as the basis of another Oracle product, SQL Developer , which Oracle Corporation promotes specifically to PL/SQL and database developers. Prior to JDeveloper 11g, JDeveloper came in three editions: Java Edition, J2EE Edition, and Studio Edition. Each one offered more features on top of

312-448: The XML file is no longer needed: With the annotation as given above the bean isn't a truly pure POJO anymore, but since annotations are merely passive metadata this has far fewer harmful drawbacks compared to the invasiveness of having to extend classes and/or implement interfaces. Accordingly, the programming model is still very much like the pure POJO model. A Plain old Java Interface (POJI)

338-409: The bean: In practice, some people find annotations elegant, while they see XML as verbose, ugly and hard to maintain, yet others find annotations pollute the POJO model. Thus, as an alternative to XML, many frameworks (e.g. Spring, EJB and JPA) allow annotations to be used instead of or in addition to XML. The following shows the same EJB bean as shown above but with an annotation added. In this case

364-493: The code dynamically to integrate those conventions without the hassle to write them. The following code would generate the same bean, with the addition of an empty constructor : Other libraries or framework generate code (or bytecode) with those conventions directly. The addition of those tools help alleviate the boilerplate , which in turn reduces the bugs frequency and maintenance cost . As designs using POJOs have become more commonly used, systems have arisen that give POJOs

390-408: The code. Any changes in the code will be immediately reflected in the visual view. JDeveloper provides a similar feature for generating JSF and Struts page flows. Declarative features enable programmers to generate EJBs or POJOs based on tables in relational databases. JDeveloper automates the creation of Java EE artifacts. For example, with a click on a visual artifact one can turn a Java class into

416-484: The exact type of the bean. The JavaBeans specification, if fully implemented, slightly breaks the POJO model as the class must implement the Serializable interface to be a true JavaBean. Many POJO classes still called JavaBeans do not meet this requirement. Since Serializable is a marker (method-less) interface, this is not much of a burden. The following shows an example of a JavaServer Faces (JSF) component having

442-431: The full functionality used in frameworks and more choice about which areas of functionality are actually needed. In this model, the programmer creates nothing more than a POJO. This POJO purely focuses on business logic and has no dependencies on (enterprise) frameworks. Aspect-oriented programming (AOP) frameworks then transparently add cross-cutting concerns like persistence, transactions, security, and so on. Spring

468-558: The generic model/binding layer was introduced with JDeveloper 9.0.5. In June 2006 Oracle Corporation donated the ADF Faces component library to Apache Trinidad . (ADF Faces, Oracle's JSF implementation, includes over 100 components.) In September 2012 Oracle introduced a free version of the core Oracle ADF technologies under the name "Oracle ADF Essentials". For more information, see http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/overview/components-1844931.html . Oracle ADF Essentials

494-437: The latest major 10g release. In October 2006, Oracle released version 10.1.3.1 that added support for the final EJB 3.0 spec along with BPEL and ESB design time. In January 2007, Oracle released version 10.1.3.2 incorporating WebCenter capabilities such as creating and consuming portlets, portlet/JSF bridge, and content-repository data control. In January 2007 Oracle had more than 150 people working in various roles on

520-407: The object (actually class) were a POJO before any annotations were added, and would return to POJO status if the annotations are removed then it can still be considered a POJO. Then the basic object remains a POJO in that it has no special characteristics (such as an implemented interface) that makes it a "Specialized Java Object" (SJO or (sic) SoJO). A JavaBean is a POJO that is serializable , has

546-496: The others, and all of them came for free. JDeveloper 11g only has two editions: Studio Edition and Java Edition. In JDeveloper 11g, J2EE Edition features are rolled into the Studio Edition. A high-level list of features includes: – Java Edition – J2EE Edition – Studio Edition In 2005, Oracle released JDeveloper as freeware. In 2006, still under the 10g tag, and after significant delays, Oracle released version 10.1.3 -

The JDeveloper code editor offers

624-594: The source code for Oracle ADF through a request to Oracle Support. Plain Old Java Objects In software engineering , a plain old Java object ( POJO ) is an ordinary Java object , not bound by any special restriction. The term was coined by Martin Fowler , Rebecca Parsons and Josh MacKenzie in September 2000: "We wondered why people were so against using regular objects in their systems and concluded that it

650-486: Was an early implementation of this idea and one of the driving forces behind popularizing this model. An example of an EJB bean being a POJO: The following shows a fully functional EJB bean, demonstrating how EJB3 leverages the POJO model: As given, the bean does not need to extend any EJB class or implement any EJB interface and also does not need to contain any EJB annotations. Instead, the programmer declares in an external XML file which EJB services should be added to

676-543: Was because simple objects lacked a fancy name. So we gave them one, and it's caught on very nicely." The term "POJO" initially denoted a Java object which does not follow any of the major Java object models, conventions, or frameworks. It has since gained adoption as a language-agnostic term, because of the need for a common and easily understood term that contrasts with complicated object frameworks. The term continues an acronym pattern to coin retronyms for constructs that do not use fancy new features: Ideally speaking,
