JDeveloper Extension SDK

Oracle JDeveloper 10g (10.1.3) Extension SDK

Oracle JDeveloper's Extension SDK is a public API that can be used to extend and customize the JDeveloper development environment. Developers can use the Extension SDK to develop extensions and integrate third party tools with the JDeveloper IDE. Using the APIs provided by the Extension SDK developers can add components that range from a new menu option through a wizard and up to a complete new editor. Extensions can be exposed through JDeveloper's Check-for-Updates functionality for easy one click install.

Getting Started

JDeveloper offers a set of sample extensions complete with their code as well as comprehensive online documentation for building extensions. These are available for download through the help->check for updates menu option in JDeveloper. Further support is provided through the JDeveloper discussion forum. You can find a "Beginners Guide To Building Extensions for Oracle JDeveloper" here.

JSR-198

Oracle is leading JSR-198 that aims to standardize the development of extensions for Java IDEs through a standard extension API for integrated development environments. JSR-198 allows third party extension writers to use a common, standard API to integrate functionality with any IDE supporting JSR-198.

Oracle JDeveloper 10g (10.1.3) supports the JSR-198 API and you can use either the JDeveloper Extension API or JSR-198 API to develop extensions to JDeveloper. You can see the JSR-198 Javadoc API Here.

JDeveloper Partner Initiative

The Oracle JDeveloper Partner Initiative is open to all partners who share Oracle's vision for an integrated, complete and standard development environment. The initiative is aimed at partners who want to develop solutions using Oracle JDeveloper, or partners who want to develop extensions to Oracle JDeveloper. Find out more information about the Oracle JDeveloper Partner Initiative.
