copied!<p>You are not alone! I could rail against JDeveloper but i'll restrain myself.</p> <p>Unfortunately, JDeveloper is the only IDE that supports all the Oracle-centric technology. So, while i'm sorry for your pain, and, trust me when i say, i understand more than you know, but, in an Oracle house, no other IDE will do. It's a real shame that you don't have support though. You'll likely need to file lots of bugs.</p> <p>It's really unfortunate that Oracle seems insistent on continuing with JDeveloper even now that they own NetBeans. JDeveloper is <em>far</em> behind Eclipse and NetBeans. They'd have <em>far</em> greater developer acceptance of their technology if they actively supported Eclipse and/or NetBeans, at the very least, in parallel with JDeveloper. There's actually quite a nice, extensive set of technology in ADF that is being hidden behind and hampered by such a horrendous development tool.</p> <p>And as a means to try and help you solve all the problems you'll encounter with JDeveloper, try this. Use two local mercurial or git repositories. One for your JDev system folder (init in the parent of system/) and a repo for your application/project. Before finishing (or starting) any wizard, add and commit (<code>hg com -Am 'savepoint'</code> or <code>git commit -am 'savepoint'</code>) both repos. This'll give you a way to rollback and also diffs of how JDeveloper broke a working project which might give you clues about how to fix things.</p> <p>Also, you might want to keep a log for your managers to show how much time you spend managing JDeveloper instead of progressing on your projects.</p> <p>Good luck.</p> <p>Note: Version control on the jdev system folder is a little questionable for rollbacks since it seems jdev buffers some writes and keeps some files open. Which means you might take a snapshot of an inconsistent or incomplete state. It's better to use that repo as an ongoing view of what is changing.</p> <p>EDIT: Also see <a href="http://www.oracle.com/tools/enterprise-eclipse-pack.html" rel="noreferrer">Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse</a></p>
