Hi... I'm a java programmer, and not familiar with environment setting, so I hope I can get some information here.
At my office, we use Oracle e-business suite (Oracle Purchasing/PO, Payable/AP, Inventory/INV, and Fixed Asset/OFA), all version 11.5.10 and OS JVM is Java 1.4.2.

Now, we have to create our own custom application, which must communicate with PO and AP.
Developing it with Oracle Form will not a best solution, because most of us are Java-based developers. So I ask my manager whether we can use Java to develop such application, and the answer is no, because we have to buy license for Oracle Application Server (OAS). I wonder, whether we can use Apache Tomcat as web server and it will be better if can run under Java 6.

Is there any proffesional here who can share information? Maybe a link to step-by-step setting tutorial or blog? Thanks in advance.

You can use any application server to run your own application, and contact an Oracle e-Business App.
When considering solutions, do not only use "because most of us are Java-based developers" as an argument.

Note that you might have to buy (I think but am not shure: JDeveloper) licenses to access an Oracle e-Business Apps database, even when you use other development tools.
