Generating a BI Beans Application in JDeveloper

JDeveloper provides wizards that assist you in the creation of the following kinds of BI Beans applications: Java-client application, Java servlet, and UIX servlet. JDeveloper also provides a wizard to assist in the creation of a BI Beans UIX page. Studying the output that results from running any of these wizards offers a quick introduction to each kind of application development. You can customize the application that is created by each wizard.
