3Since 1977, the Oracle corporation has
specialized in the production and marketing of
computer components. This includes hardware
systems as well as a number of software programs.
Though the company focuses more on the
development of databases and business management
software such as ERPs (Enterprise resource
planning) and SCMs (Supply chain management), it
also dabbles in application development programs.
The logic that drives Oracles applications
development software division is the need to make
it easier for programmers and users to use Oracle
products. As such software packages such as J
Developer make strategic business sense as the
user will have everything they need. That way
they engender a type of brand loyalty since given
the ability to create applications that can run
on Oracle products, the end user will not feel
the need to rely on other brand products to
satisfy their needs.
4J Developer is an Integrated Development
Environment (IDE) that developers can use to
create applications. The integrated features of
this Oracle software can prop up the entire life
development cycle of the application The main
advantages of this IDE lie in the fact that its
completely free of charge and offers development
features in HTML, SQL, XML Java, JavaScript, PHP
and BPEL. Oracles J Developer simplifies the
whole process of application development by
offering the developer a more declarative and
visual approach to the whole process. This
visual, declarative approach of the J Developer
lets programmers visually alter code layout and
properties by simply regenerating key code
components.
5There are a variety of benefits that application
developers can enjoy by simply using J Developer.
Firstly, this free Oracle software is
compatible some of the more popular open-source
tools and frameworks. It is slightly similar in
design to other popular IDEs such as Visual
studio and Netbeans. This simply means that the
learning curve is simplified and programmers that
are familiar with other IDEs will find it
relatively easy to use J Developer. The close
knit nature of the IDE also means its easy to
integrate underlying database components be it
data or objects, into the application code.
Thanks to the visual component of J Developer,
making alterations to code is also simplified
6There are a number of platforms that Java
application developers can opt to use when
building applications, including eclipse,
Netbeans and J Developer. Most developers
however, would directly opt for J Developer.
Aside from the above practical advantages, this
Oracle software also offers the developer
functional advantages along with simplicity. J
Developer dual functionality also allows for the
development of desktop apps along with Java based
applications. Furthermore, it comes in several
editions that give the developer choice in terms
of what functionalities to install. After all it
would be a waste of time (and more importantly
space) to install features that are most likely
never going to be used. Image Source
