Future of Oracle Forms and Reports?
If you are interested in knowing what the future holds for Oracle Forms and Reports, ToolsSOD.pdf (application/pdf Object) is a must read. According to this document, while J2EE is the preferred method of future development, Oracle Forms and Oracle Reports are not going away in the foreseeable future.
Oracle JDeveloper 10g with ADF is the tool of choice for Forms, Reports and Designer customers because it carries over a similar development model. However, given the architecture difference between J2EE and Forms or Reports, Oracle has no plans to offer a complete migration solution that would attempt to migrate applications built with these tools to J2EE.
