Description Roman Mostyka 2008-10-30 15:40:05 UTC

1. Rightclick "Databases" node and choose "New Connection...".
2. In "New Connection" dialog type necessary parameters and click "OK".

Result: IDE tries to connect to DB, but for user progress isn't clear. Some progress bar can help with this.

Adding a progressbar in the dialog is useless, as it could only pulse (java.sql.Driver#connect is atomic). Currently the dialog switches to an uneditble state and show a message on success/error. I think this is ok.

If it is needed to display a message, that a connection attempt is made is needed, please reopen - this should be only a few lines of code.
