Summary

The deployment of applications can be a challenge for developers and administrators, particularly when those applications incorporate things like JSPs or EJBs. The J2EE specification outlines how complex Java-based applications are expected to be organized ( packaged in J2EE terms). This specification greatly simplifies the deployment of applications by forcing developers and administrators to adhere to a specific directory structure. Oracle Application Server 10 g, being a fully compliant J2EE application server, is capable of taking these formatted directories and deploying the applications contained within them easily.

In this chapter, we explored the three basic ways of deploying J2EE applications to Oracle Application Server 10 g : by way of the command line, by using the Oracle Enterprise Manager Application Server Control web site, and by deploying directly from within Oracle JDeveloper 10 g. Each of these methods has its own advantages and drawbacks: the command line gives developers the most control over how applications are deployed, but it can be difficult to remember all of the necessary syntax. Deploying by way of the Enterprise Manager web site reduces the need to remember much of the deployment syntax but isolates the developer from some of the available options. Deployment by way of using Oracle JDeveloper 10 g is the easiest way to deploy Java-based applications to an Oracle Application Server 10 g OC4J instance but requires, obviously, that you use Oracle JDeveloper 10 g for your development. With any method you decide to use, the deployment of Java-based applications to Oracle Application Server 10 g will provide you with simple, intuitive options to make the process straightforward for even the most complex of applications.
