In the following sections, we’ll discuss the basics of setting up JDeveloper to work with these Oracle XDK components in Java. While JDeveloper 3.1 does offer color-coded syntax editing of PL/SQL and the ability to browse stored procedures and run the SQL scripts against a named database connection, most of the true developer productivity features in the product target Java development (as you’d assume from the “J” in JDeveloper).
Adding Oracle XDK Libraries to Your Project
To dramatically simplify working with libraries of Java code in your projects, JDeveloper 3.1 has a facility called named libraries . Each library consists of:
A user-friendly library name like “Oracle XML Parser 2.0.”
A Class path comprising one or more
.jarfiles,.zipfiles, or directories separated by semicolons, containing the executable classes to support the library; for example,J:\lib\xmlparserv2.jar.An optional Source path comprising one or more
.jarfiles,.zipfiles, or directories containing the Java source code ...
