Deploying ADF Faces Applications on Tomcat 6

After a bit of struggling with ADF Faces and Tomcat, I finally got them working together. The version of ADF Faces I am using for this is 11gR1 (11.1.1.4.0) and Tomcat 6.0.28. I don't know if it will work with 11.1.1.3.0 or other version of Tomcat but I will give it a shot in the near future.
What I've got working so far is only the ADF Faces and Data Visualization applications, with binding support (page definitions, taskflows, page templates etc.). I did not yet got into ADF BC and Security (JPS), but this is the next step.
While doing the experiment, I noticed that Oracle is preparing the grounds for adding JBoss support is their next release. They've added the WebSphere application server and it seems pretty logical that JBoss will be the next supported app server.

What you need to do, in order to use Tomcat to deploy ADF Faces is just copy the right JARs in Tomcat's lib folder and configure the JDeveloper web application (ViewController project) to be deployed as a WAR for Tomcat. You can do this by going to the Project Properties for the ViewController project, choose Deployment and there create a new WAR deployment profile and select Tomcat as the target application server. After this, just deploy the project to the war file and copy it to the webapps folder inside Tomcat.

Before starting the server, add the following JAR files to the lib folder inside Tomcat:

You can find them in any middleware installation, usually in the MW_HOME/oracle_common/modules or MW_HOME/modules folders.

After copying the jars, start Tomcat and enjoy..
