Pop to the Oracle website and download the 1.8GB studio edition. Ensure you pick the generic jar file is selected.


Prerequisites

JDeveloper 11g R1 has been certified to run on Java 7 since patch set 5. This is not the case on OS X. For Macs, you will need to run the Software Update, which will install the latest JDK 1.6, which will be used to install JDeveloper. You can check the installation path by going to...

/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/


Prepare Java VM directory

Firstly, you need to open up a terminal window and execute the following commands:

sudo rm /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Home/jre/lib/rt.jar
sudo mkdir -p /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Home/jre/lib
cd /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Home/jre/lib
sudo ln -s /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/classes/classes.jar rt.jar


Start Installing JDeveloper

To begin installing JDeveloper, you will need to start up a terminal window and execute the following command:

/System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Commands/java -jar /Users/danielredfern/Desktop/jdev_suite_121200.jar

Note: You will need change the last part of the command as this is directly pointing to my jdeveloper file, which I placed on my Desktop With luck, you will then be presented with the Quick start, go ahead and select 'start JDeveloper'

HOW TO provision AD group membership from OpenIDM

OpenIDMICFAD-connector

For what I see, there's not too many supportive documentations out there that will demonstrate how provision AD group membership with the ICF connector using OpenIDM. The use of the special ldapGroups attribute is not explained anywhere in the Integrators guides to to the date of this blog. This quick blog identifies the tasks required to provision AD group membership from OpenIDM to AD using the LDAP ICF connector. However this doesn't really explain what ldapGroups actually does and there's no real worked example of how to go from an Assignment to ldapGroups to an assigned group in AD. I wrote up a wiki article for my own reference: AD group memberships automatically to users This is just my view, others may disagree, but I think the implementation experience could be improved with some more documentation and a more detailed example here.
