 Great for the "old" developerJan 11, 2007
By P. Follett
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.

Very good introduction to web develepment...Mar 22, 2007
By Julio E. Guillen Ch
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).

very informativeMar 15, 2007
By Gustavo H. Joppert
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.

 Too TechnicalJan 13, 2010
By Kamlesh D. Dhairyavan
I purchased this book based on previous reviews and it seems it was not correct decision to buy based on reviews. I am not sure why title is "Oracle JDeveloper 10g for Forms & PL/SQL Developers" because book is saying all technical stuff about Java and others however knowing oracle forms and PL/SQL will not really help you to understand what it says about JDeveloper and there is no step-by-step approach so that user can try that and can understand by going through some exercises.
Most technical books give examples and how to use the development tools, however this book does not tell you how to use JDeveloper, some examples are there from Chapter 1 to 8 however they are not really helpful in understanding concepts because when you start working on those examples, at some point you don't know how to do that and you will not be able to complete it. Books explains some concepts from Chapter 1 to Chapter 8, but the examples are not complete that you can try by self and learn the concepts before going through 2 sample applications, starting from Chapter 9.
I am still at Chapter 7, not sure about the remaining chapters and also two sample applications. So please don't be under wrong impression that if you are an Oracle PL/SQL or Forms Developer, you can learn JDeveloper by going over this book and couple of sample applications given in this book.

Good IntroductionMar 17, 2008
By Troy McClure
Being a traditional pl/sql developer, I was drawn to the title of the book immediately. I know I need to eventually buckle down and learn Java, but what better way than by drawing parallels to pl/sql and Forms.
I like the hands-on examples that has you build a fairly complete application from scratch. I say fairly complete because its only a 500 page book and it allows the reader to go out and research ways to improve it.
One of my favorite parts of the book is a summary section that shows up after a large chunk of instructions called "What did you just do?" This sums up what the reader just performed - explaining in layman's terms what you actually just did.
Although I'm sure you can get similar tutorials on OTN somewhere, having a book to flip back through is always nice.
