Creating and defining projects

You will need a container for the resources that are used to create and support business applications created using Oracle BPM. Oracle BPM projects are based on SOA projects, but they include the additional functionality of the Oracle BPM Suite, including BPMN processes.

How to do it...

You will use JDeveloper as the IDE to work with BPM Studio. The version of JDeveloper used is 11.1.1.5.0. This is done as follows:

  1. Start the JDeveloper Studio (11.1.1.5.0). Choose the default role, to enable all the technologies. You can also choose the BPM Process Analyst role.
  2. Click on File | New | All Items, and choose BPM Application:
