This document will assist the Java developer in setting-up a JDeveloper Application and Projects that leverage the various packages within Project OpenPTK.

The processes outlined in this document will allow the developer to leverage the bundled build process (ant and build.xml file) that is provided with Project OpenPTK while using the development features of JDeveloper.

The process involves downloading the entire Project OpenPTK source code distribution and then creating a specific JDeveloper's projects that "map" to OpenPTK projects.
