Oracle9i Developer Suite

Oracle9i Developer Suite, the next generation of Oracle Internet Developer Suite, offers a complete set of integrated development tools, empowering developers to easily and quickly create the next generation of internet applications for personalized web portals and hosted software services.

Oracle9i Developer Suite provides a common IDE, with tools for modeling, Java programming, component development, businesses intelligence, and reporting. All of these tools share a common repository, allowing developers to collaborate on projects. Leveraging the combined capabilities of Java, XML, and SQL, Oracle9i Developer Suite gives developers the flexibility to use multiple development approaches -- from UML modeling to declarative coding to component-based development, all in a single development environment.

Oracle9i Developer Suite is tightly integrated with Oracle9i Database and Oracle9i Application Server, providing an integrated platform for building and deploying applications to a variety of devices.

Oracle9i Developer Suite provides support for:

Integrated, Java, XML, and SQL Development

Oracle9i Developer Suite delivers an Java and XML Integrated Development Environment (IDE), allowing internet developers to leverage the combined power of Java, XML, and SQL.

Oracle9i Developer Suite provides comprehensive support for J2EE standards, such as Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs), Servlets, and JavaServer Pages (JSPs). In addition, it integrates an XML parser, XSLT processor, XML schema processor, and XSQL servlet for developing XML applications.

Oracle9i Developer Suite provides integrated support for UML for model-based application development. It provides wizards, property inspectors, code-color editors, and syntax checkers to optimize developer productivity.

The Business Components for Java framework provides an easy way to encapsulate business logic as standard components. Business Components for Java offers developers the ability to deploy the same components in multiple configurations and access them from browser, desktops, and other wireless devices.

With Oracle9i Developer Suite's comprehensive support for internet standards and open APIs, make it the perfect tool for building software services and hosted, internet applications. Oracle9i Developer Suite runs on multiple platforms including Solaris, NT, and Linux.

Declarative, RAD Development

Oracle9i Developer Suite provides a standards-based, declarative HTML forms development tool for building highly interactive and scalable HTML data-aware components. HTML forms combine powerful transactional processing and a rich, interactive HTML user interface.

With HTML forms, developers can use their RAD experience to develop internet applications that include HTML user interfaces that are highly productive and professional. Developers can build dynamic, transactional pages with RAD tools that include re-entrant wizards, toolbars, and editable property palettes.

Unified Modeling Language

Oracle9i Developer Suite supports the UML standard for software development modeling. It provides class modeling to generate code for the Business Components for Java framework and activity modeling for general-purpose control flow modeling. Models are managed in the Oracle repository, which provides version control of modeling objects. In addition, Oracle9i Developer Suite supports XML for data exchange with other UML tools.

Common Repository

Oracle9i Developer Suite provides a common repository that offers a multi-user,scalable solution for supporting large development teams. The common repository manages structured data like database objects and unstructured data like files and XML documents. The repository provides check-in and check-out capability to maintain multiple versions.

By using the common repository as a single source for application metadata, both small and large teams working in parallel can be more productive. Developers can analyze dependencies between objects, check for shared components, and manage application development.

Oracle9i Developer Suite provides user-friendly repository tools, such as a version history viewer, dependency manager, and configuration manager.

Device-Independent UI Components

Oracle9i Developer Suite simplifies the development and maintenance of HTML and Web-based applications by providing a set of device-independent user interface components. These JavaBean components help promote UI consistency and allow for easy customization and internationalization of the user interface.

Developers can use the components programmatically using the Java APIs, or declaratively with the User Interface XML language (UIX).

Device-independent UI controls work with the Oracle9i Application Server Wireless Edition, making Oracle9i Developer Suite the most productive development environment for building applications for any device.

Business Intelligence Components

Business Intelligence Components are standard JavaBeans that provide analytical functionality. Examples include: Presentation Beans for data visualization (graphs and charts), Data Query Beans for building complex queries, and Analytic Beans for analytic calculation.

Using Oracle9i Developer Suite, BI Beans can be integrated into any Java application, and provide sophisticated analytic calculations and query capabilities to end users.
