Beginning Oracle Application Express 4.2 introduces version 4.2 of the
popular and productive Oracle Application Express development platform.
Called APEX for short, the platform enables rapid and easy development
of web-based applications that make full use of Oracle Database. The
release of APEX 4.2 brings extensive new Flash and HTML 5 charting
capabilities, enhanced themes for mobile applications usable from phones
and tablets, RESTful web services support, enhanced application
packaging, and the many redesigned wizards give a new and fresh feel to
the user interface.
Whether you're new to Oracle or an old hand who's yet to test the waters
of APEX, Beginning Oracle Application Express 4.2 introduces the
processes and best practices you'll need to become proficient with APEX.
The book shows off the programming environment, the utilities and tools
available, and then continues by walking through the process of building
a working system from the ground up. All code is documented and
explained so that those new to the languages will not be lost. After
reading this book, power users and programmers alike can quickly put
together robust and scalable applications for use by one person, by a
department, by an entire company.
