J Developer Installation Steps

1.1 Download J Developer

First step is to identify the compatible version of OAF for your e-business suite. Not every version of OAF is compatible with every version of e-business suite.

Also Note that OAF is only to be used with oracle e-business suite. You cannot develop stand alone applications with OAF just the way we can do with ADF.

Log in to Oracle Applications. At the bottom left you can see "About this Page".

Click on that link.

Click on "Technology Components" Tab

Check the OA Framework version & download the correct patch from Support.Oracle.Com
