Custom Rules for ADF BC Java Files

There is a very good explanation of how to write custom rules using Jdev Extensions @ Write your own Audit Rule Extension in JDeveloper 12C by Richard Olrichs.

So after we created the extensions project, it still does not have library dependencies for jdev audit extensions. If we check its classpath, it shows something like below :-
