Deploying J2EE and ADF Applications: Purpose
Deploying J2EE and ADF Applications: Purpose
Purpose
This tutorial shows you how to use JDeveloper to archive and deploy J2EE and ADF applications to an Oracle 10g Application Server.
Deployment is the process of packaging the files that make up an application as an archive file, and transferring the archive to the server where the application
will run. This tutorial shows you how to use JDeveloper to deploy either J2EE or ADF applications to application servers through application server
connections. The basic steps are:
Topics
This lesson discusses the following:
Overview
Prerequisites
Step 1 - Compile and Run the Application from JDeveloper
Step 2 - Create a Connection to the Application Server
Step 3 - Deploy a J2EE Application
Step 4 - Deploy an ADF Application

Overview
This tutorial shows you how to use JDeveloper to package and deploy the model and view components of both J2EE and ADF applications.
The J2EE application is composed of an EJB as the model component and a JSP as the view component. The model is deployed to an
EJB JAR file with the JSP deployed to a WAR file. Once each component has been deployed to the appropriate archive, both are included
in an EAR file, then deployed to the Oracle Application Server 10g .
The ADF application view component is archived to a WAR file and then deployed to the Oracle Application Server 10g. In both the J2EE
and ADF deployments, the application can then be accessed using a browser.
Scenario
To complete this OBE, you must download and install two JDeveloper workspaces. Each contains a sample application for you to deploy. These applications
access the Common Schema Human Resources database objects. It is very important to create and name the JDeveloper Database Connections according
to the specifications found in the second step of the prerequisites.
Prerequisites
Back to Topic List
In order for this lesson to work successfully, you need to have performed the following:
In this step, you will load two application workspaces in JDeveloper and test the applications using the embedded OC4J server. One workspace contains a
J2EE application with a JSP as the view and an EJB defining the business rules. The second workspace contains an ADF application.
Download and unzip the deploySamples.zip file onto your machine in the <JDEVELOPER_HOME>\jdev\mywork\ directory.
1.
You should have two directories: deployment_j2ee and deployment_adf . The deployment_j2ee directory contains a J2EE application and the
deployment_adf contains an ADF application.
Invoke JDeveloper and independently open each of the two workspaces. Select Open from the File menu, and navigate to the
2.
<JDEVELOPER_HOME>\jdev\mywork\deployment_j2ee directory. Select the J2EEApplication.jws file and click OK
to load the J2EE workspace. Repeat the Open operation and select the ADFApplication.jws file in the <JDEVELOPER_HOME>
\jdev\mywork\deployment_adf directory.
Compile the J2EE application by selecting the J2EEApplication workspace in the Application Navigator and selecting the Make option
3.
from the context menu.
Run the J2EE application. Expand the View node and select the login. From the context menu, select Run.
4.
When the application is invoked, login using 100 as the Employee Id and King as the Employee Name.

Compile the ADF application by selecting the ADFApplication workspace in the Application Navigator and selecting the Make option from
7.
the context menu.
Run the ADF application. Expand the ViewController and Web Content nodes and select Login.jsp. From the context menu, select
8.
Run.
When the application is invoked, login using 100 as the Employee Id and King as the Employee Name.
9.
JDeveloper supports deploying your applications to a variety of production application servers, via application sever connections. You must create a
connection to deploy applications directly to Oracle Application Server 10g from JDeveloper.
Click the Connections tab in the Navigator. Right-click Application Server and select New Application Server Connection.
1.
In the Type pane, name the connection OracleAS10g and specify Oracle Application Server 10g as the connection type. Click Next.
2.
Provide the password in the Authorization pane for the ias_admin user, for example, welcome1, and click Next.
3.
In the Connection pane, accept the default host name and port and specify the ORACLE_HOME directory for the Oracle Application Server
4.
10g install, for example, D:\Oracle\OraAS10g, and click Next.
Click Next and accept the default values for the EJB Client Connection.
5.
Click Next and in the Test pane, click the Test Connection button. When the status message indicates success, click Finish.
6.
In this step you create an archive for the J2EE components, deploy it to the Oracle Application Server 10g, and test it from a browser.
Create and Deploy a JAR file for the J2EE EJB Model Project
Create and Deploy a WAR file for the J2EE View Project
Create and Deploy an EAR file for the Complete J2EE Application
Test the J2EE Application Deployment
Create and Deploy a JAR file for the J2EE EJB Model Project
