[APEX] 安裝 APEX 3.2 in Oracle 10g XE

APEX（Oracle Application Express)是Oracle用來取代Oracle Form和HTML DB的下一世代產品，他是架構在Meta-Data上面的開發架構，簡單的說，Oracle試著讓你不要寫程式也可以快速開發出一些實用的WEB應用程式，也稱為宣告式開發(Declarative Programming).

下面是來自Oracle官方對APEX的簡單介紹.

Oracle Application Express (Oracle APEX), formerly called HTML DB, is a rapid web application development tool for the Oracle database. Using only a web browser and limited programming experience, you can develop and deploy professional applications that are both fast and secure. Oracle application express combines the qualities of a personal database, productivity, ease of use, and flexibility with the qualities of an enterprise database, security, integrity, scalability, availability and built for the web. Application Express is a tool to build web-based applications and the application development environment is also conveniently web-based.

我的Laptop上已經有Oracle 10G XE，APEX3.2也在日前Release，今天花了點時間把APEX安裝起來，順道在APEX官上網下載了資產管理的範例，也安裝起來，執行的結果如下圖. 之後就可透過APEX提供的功能去修改功能，或新增報表，不用再寫程式喔！


APEX我還不太熟，用這個當起點學學，未來有機會在來Share. 據說著名的Oracle Asktom網站也是用APEX開發的，個人覺得挺有未來空間的.
