There are numerous ADF libraries and it may cause you problems when you get a ClassNotFound exception.
Luckily there is a small search utility in the "Add Library" and the "Manage Libraries" dialogs as shown in the next figure:
Frank Nimphius has created a new article "Introduction to ADF Security in JDeveloper 10.1.3.2" on OTN.
See the article [Here]
I see that Chris Muir has just begun blogging on http://one-size-doesnt-fit-all.blogspot.com/
I remember having had some interesting discussions with Chris about LOVs (List Of Values) in UIX and having seen one of the applications he had developped - very nice one.
Chris is also an active member in the JDeveloper forum.
I added a link to Chris's blog under the LINKS section.
His first entry is an interview of Steve Muench - interesting to read for anybody having some interests in ADF.

In a previous post, I recommended the book "Oracle JDeveloper 10g for Forms & PL/SQL Developers
and referred to the Chapter 6 - Business Services in ADF as example.
This chapter can now be downloaded from OTN [Here] (PDF)
The "JDeveloper and ADF Strategy and Roadmap" is available on OTN.
It includes the details of what you can expect in Release 11 of JDeveloper.
Duncan's and Peter's book "Oracle JDeveloper 10g for Forms & PL/SQL Developers: A Guide to Web Development with Oracle ADF" is out:
See Duncan's announcement on his blog.
I had the opportunity to participate to the review and I found it excellent.
That's definitely the book I needed 2 years ago when I decided to move from the Designer to the JDeveloper support.
It explains all the J2EE concepts you should understand to develop your applications with ADF Faces and ADF Business Components.
For example, Chapter 6 - Business Services in ADF answers the following questions, common when developing an application:
We get some questions about the certification of applications developed in JDeveloper 10.1.3 and deployed in the Oracle Application Server 10.1.2
We have a certification matrix published on OTN, in document "Application Servers Supported by JDeveloper".
You can see there that this combination is certified but under the following conditions:
A. For all applications, you need to reconfigure
your applications to use J2SE 1.4.2 and J2EE 1.3. See the JDeveloper documentation
for complete instructions.
B. For ADF applications only, you need to
install the ADF runtime libraries, using the ADF Runtime Installer. To start
the Installer, select Tools | ADF Runtime Installer from the main menu in JDeveloper.
Instructions for running the installer are in the JDeveloper online documentation,
or click Help in the Installer.
The "Oracle Application Development Framework Developer's Guide For Forms/4GL Developers" has been published on OTN.
It's available in HTML and PDF formats.
Kudos to the doc team and Steve.
It's really an excellent source of information and I'm sure it will help a lot of developers.

Oracle9i JDeveloper Version 9.0.4.3 (build 1471) is available on OTN.
It may look surprising we still provide new releases of this old JDeveloper version.
The reason is that JDeveloper 9.0.4 is the last version of JDeveloper without the ADF (Application Development Framework).
End of support is foreseen in December this year.
So if you still use this version, we recommend that you migrate to JDeveloper 10.1.2 or 10.1.3
Up to now, installing the ADF Runtime libraries in an Application Server could be done automatically from JDeveloper, but it required
