This review is from: Oracle JDeveloper 10g for Forms & PL/SQL Developers: A Guide to Web Development with Oracle ADF (Oracle Press) (Paperback)

As the authors note, this is written for people who know PL/SQL inside and out but don't have a clue about java and JDeveloper - my exact position. The first read through gave me a clearer picture, and the subsequent reads are finally lifting the fog.

This review is from: Oracle JDeveloper 10g for Forms & PL/SQL Developers: A Guide to Web Development with Oracle ADF (Oracle Press) (Paperback)

This is an excelent book for begining web development, it explains you step by step how things work and "glue" together. The only reason for me to give it 4 stars is that, in the book it explains how to build part of an application (tuhra) and it tells you to look for the rest (of the app.) on the web site..... I looked for it but it is nowhere to be found... (they only have the parts of the app. that you develope while doing the books excercises).

This review is from: Oracle JDeveloper 10g for Forms & PL/SQL Developers: A Guide to Web Development with Oracle ADF (Oracle Press) (Paperback)

This book served well our need to train Oracle Forms developers in JDeveloper/ADF. The first part is a good technological review, the second a hands-on to build an application that not only tells what to do and how to do it, but explains it fully. It was useful even after attending formal Oracle training.
