3 Deploying WebLogic SCA Runtime to WebLogic Server

This chapter describes WebLogic SCA Runtime, which is installed by default with Oracle WebLogic Server. However, it must be deployed as a shared Web application library.

Note:

WebLogic SCA applications are expected to bundle spring.jar, so the Spring Framework does not have to be installed separately during WebLogic SCA Runtime deployment.

Deploying a Library Using the WebLogic Server Administration Console

In WebLogic Server, you can deploy the library using the WebLogic Server Administration Console or the command-line weblogic.Deployer tool.

For information about weblogic.Deployer, see Deploying Applications and Modules with weblogic.Deployer in Deploying Applications to Oracle WebLogic Server.

To deploy the library using the WebLogic Server Administration Console:

  1. If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the WebLogic Server Administration Console, click Lock & Edit.
  2. In the left pane of the WebLogic Server Administration Console, click Deployments.
  3. In the right pane, click Install.
  4. In the Install Application Assistant, navigate to the library file:

    WL_HOME/common/deployable-libraries/weblogic-sca-1.0.war

  5. Select the file and click Next.
  6. Select Install this deployment as a library.
  7. Click Next.
  8. Select the servers and/or clusters to which you want to deploy the application or module.
  9. Click Next.
  10. Optionally update additional deployment settings.
  11. Click Next.
  12. Review the configuration settings you have specified, and click Finish to complete the installation.
  13. To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the WebLogic Server Administration Console, click Activate Changes.

For more information about deployment in WebLogic Server, see Understanding WebLogic Server Deployment in Deploying Applications to Oracle WebLogic Server.

Note:

You can deploy the WebLogic SCA Runtime library automatically by using tools that support WebLogic Server SCA, such as Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse.

See Tools Support for more information on WebLogic SCA support in such tools.
