Acknowledgments

This book wouldn't have been possible if it weren't for several individuals who have helped out behind the scenes, providing support through answering questions and giving me some ideas and feedback. More specifically, thanks to Patrick Wolf and Daniel McGhan for their input and excellent recommendations. As well thanks to my business partners, Cameron Mahbubian and Chris Hritzuk, for working extra hard on the business to allow me to focus on this book.

Of course, it goes without saying that I'd like to thank my family. Despite the fact that they have no idea what a database is (in spite of my many attempts to try to explain it to them), they've always been very supportive of everything I do and this book was no different. Thanks to my parents, Norbert and Susanne, for all their support and guidance.

There's a saying that goes, Behind every great man, there's an even greater woman. Special thanks to my partner, Stephanie Schubert, for being understanding and supportive over some very late nights as I wrote this book. Without her support, this book wouldn't have happened.

Introduction

When APEX 4.0 was first released, I was very excited about all of the new features and fixes. The two new features that interested me the most were dynamic actions and plug-ins. I was fortunate to be able to write about dynamic actions in the Expert Oracle Application Express book earlier this year. When the opportunity presented itself to write a book entirely dedicated to plug-ins, I couldn't resist.

After writing countless examples on how to modify APEX on my blog, www.talkapex.com, I was ecstatic when plug-ins were introduced to APEX. They offer developers a standardized, declarative way to write customized objects in APEX and easily reuse them within an application. Of course, you can share plug-ins with your organization or even with the entire APEX community. I've written many free plug-ins, which can be found at plugins.clarifit.com and are available for download at www.apex-plugin.com.

Halfway through writing this book, APEX 4.1 was released. APEX 4.1 introduced some new features and enhancements to the plug-in framework, and I decided to go back and re-write several sections in this book to reflect the changes between versions. The only thing from the new plug-in features introduced in APEX 4.1 that is not covered in this book is the two new types of plug-ins: authorization and authentication. The four other types of plug-ins are covered in detail in this book, and you should be able to leverage the knowledge obtained from them to help yourself write authorization and authentication plug-ins.

This book provides you with all the necessary information to get a solid foundation of how to build an APEX plug-in. It also includes information on some tools that will be helpful to you when developing plug-ins. You may find it helpful to flip back and forth between your current page and Chapters 7 and 8, which focus on best practices, debugging, and tools.
