How do I deploy an applet using JDeveloper?

I have a simple applet that I have created in JDeveloper 11g R1, deploying to Weblogic server 10.3. This applet has a dependency of ojdbc6.jar. I am deploying as a war file.

When I deploy and browse to the html page the applet loads but I get the following exception:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/jdbc/pool/OracleDataSource

I can see the ojdbc6.jar in the WEB-INF/lib folder when I expand the .war file.

The HTML of the applet page is as follows:

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>
Title
</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<APPLET CODE="com.test.Applet" ARCHIVE="ojdbc6.jar" HEIGHT="800" WIDTH="625" ALIGN="bottom">This browser does not support Applets.</APPLET>
</BODY>
</HTML>

Is there a way to get JDeveloper to deploy so that my dependencies are actually accessible by the server?

Solution

  • If you are using an applet then the JDBC jar needs to be included in the applet JAR, not in the web project WAR.
