We have to further extend JDeveloper for working with a running WebCenter: Spaces instance.

Download the following package and unzip it:

There you will find three directories, two of them starting with „copy_to_….“.

„copy_to_common“ includes a common directory that contains WebCenter Portal WLST commands. WebCenter Portal’s WLST commands are required to upload customized resources directly to the Spaces application from DesignWebCenterSpaces.jws.

The content (!) of the „copy_to_common“ directory (not the whole directory itself) must be copied to \oracle_common\
„copy_to_jdev_ext“ includes oracle.webcenter.portal.jar. Required update to Oracle JDeveloper WebCenter Portal Framework and Services Design Time Extensions

The .jar file in the „copy_to_jdev_ext“ directory must be copied to \jdeveloper\jdev\extensions\
