Oracle ADF is an end-to-end framework which makes application development simple by providing infrastructure services as well as visual and declarative development right away.

“Oracle ADF 11gR2 Development Beginner’s Guide” guides any user with programming skills to be able to quickly learn the options and ways to develop rich Internet applications using ADF 11gR2. Containing all the skills that a new user has to use to build an application in ADF 11gR2, this book is designed in such a way so that it enhances the practical feel of developing applications in ADF 11gR2.

Starting with the installation and configuration of Oracle ADF 11g RD we will then work through topics such as working with the Model Layer and Model Data followed by displaying and binding the data. Later we will look at Navigations and Flows within applications as well as their layout, look, and feel. “Oracle ADF 11g R2 Development Beginner’s Guide” will conclude with us looking at the security and deployment of the applications which have been created.

Happy commenting,

Thanks,
Vinod

    We use ADF to develop functionality for use with Oracle WebCenter Portal. As we recruit new staff and introduce the technology to some of our other staff, this book will be a great starting point for their knowledge.

    Hi,

    I am techie passionate about learning new technologies. Although I worked on many technologies, I never got an opportunity to work on Oracle ADF and now since I have recently joined an organization which actually owns the Oracle ADF I would like to explore Oracle ADF technologies and get some hands-on experience. Hence, being a beginner, I would appreciate if any help is provided to me in my learning curve.

    Therefore, I request you to provide me with a copy of your book so that I can go ahead and learn Oracle ADF.

    Thanks

    Recently, i was thrown into the wild water of ADF in my job. I just rely on myself and stuff i can find on internet. I’m very interested in this technology, but there is a lot of stuff and i’m confused sometimes looking for something concrete. I think i’m still at the beginning of the way and need to push myself further.
    sorry for my english, hawk 😉

    I always prefer books to learn new technologies. Books explicate things from very basic. When I search solutions on Google, most often it points the finger at Vinod. I inspired his problem approaches through his blog. This book contents exhibit the Oracle ADF development from inception to end. Especially it’s good to understand the ADF architecture. Also, Alexander Hansal’s review decided me to buy this book. I believe this book will lead me do the best practices in Oracle ADF development.Thanks to Packt and Vinod.

    I am preparing to take the ADF certification. I started by reading the Oracle JDeveloper 11g Handbook and then practiced all the JDeveloper tutorials. But, these tutorials do not cover all the topics required for the certification. For that, we have to study the guide. I didn’t think it is possible to just read everything in the guide and remember. I wished there was a book that covered all the topics in a simple manner followed by a practical example after each topic which will help you understand and remember everything. By looking at the table of contents of this book, I know that this is the book that I needed. So, it would be nice to get a free copy, it will surely help me to get certified.

    We have been developed applications for more than 10 years using ADF Framework, since JDev 9.0.2. We’re constantly upgrading our applications to upgrade look and feel, redesign application structure, implement new performance functionality and to be at the top of technology. Oracle ADF Framework is a primary concern of our development teams, this book is a must and part of our document library so everybody can have a reference to understand the framework and can share knowledge for new developer generations.
