The installation of Oracle JDeveloper 10 g is simpler than for most other Oracle products. There is no need to define an ORACLE_HOME environment variable prior to beginning the installation. Following a popular trend back toward simplicity in software management, Oracle JDeveloper 10 g is provided as a Zip file (or appropriate compression type depending on your installation platform) that you simply extract to a directory you wish to work in. To begin execution of Oracle JDeveloper 10 g on Windows, the developer simply executes the jdevw.exe file found in the <install location>\jdev\bin directory. To run on Linux/Unix, source the jdev script in the <install location>/jdev/bin directory:
. ./jdev
