4) Tell me the practical steps for extension of a view object, starting from
 $JAVA_TOP to jDeveloper

Ans: Get the VO object from java Top which we want to extend and keep it inside
Jdveloper myprojects. Then create a new VO and select the extends option as
the parent vo which is going to be extended. This will be done in JDeveloper
wizard. Now the parent vo sql will be shown in Jdeveloper wizard (sql editor)
and as per our requirement we can modify or can add new attributes.
Once this vo creation is complete we have to right click on project and select
the substitution option.their we have to choose the old vo and new vo.Once it
is done the substitution is complete.we need to compile the project.After
compilation a xml entry will be created in jpx file. the jpx file genrally is the
name of project.So now we need to import the jpx to MDS and have to move
the java and vo xml to java top

5)You are working on two projects, both involve OA Framework.

One instance is on 11.5.10-Rollup2
Other instance is on R12-Rollup4
Can you setup up development environment for both these instances on your
PC/Laptop? If yes, then please explain how.

Answer
The Jdeveloper 10g is used for r12 and 9i for r11. We can have two jdevelopers
in local. But when starting the Jdeveloper we have to chnage the environment
variable named JDEV_USER_HOME. It should point to jdev folder where all our
source code lies.
