First workshop on ADF for Forms developers

4 November 2005 at 10:05 CET | In Forms, JDeveloper, Oracle, Workshops & trainings, Workshops and demos |

Grant Ronald just released the first of a series of five workshops to show ADF development to Forms/Designer developers. There is a viewlet quickly showing the (basic) application you will be building through the five workshops. The first workshop is already available and shows you how to setup a database connection from JDeveloper and draw a Database Diagram. It also shows you how to setup the initial page flow diagram without building any webpages yet. Grant is planning on releasing the other four workshops in the coming 10 days.

I know Grant Ronald and Sue Harper are working hard to familiarize the Forms/Designer developers with the new J2EE way of doing things. The have a great subsite on OTN specifically targeted at this group. There are a lot of great articles on J2EE/ADF development at this site. If you’re a (former) Forms/Designer developer getting started with J2EE/ADF development you should really keep your eyes on this site and follow these workshops. You can find the first workshop under the News section and I guess that’s also where you will find the other four once they are released.

The material from the workshop supports the successful Oracle Developer Day program they have been running globally over the past months. I’ve been in contact with Grant Ronald about running the same program in the Netherlands. Let’s hope Oracle is willing to do so…
