Description Andrei Badea 2006-11-28 17:08:57 UTC
A showAddDriverDialog(String driverClass) method and its "FromEventTread"
equivalent (similar to ConnectionManager) needs to be added to
JDBCDriverManager. This method should display the New Driver dialog with the
Driver Class text field pre-filled and unmodifiable and should only allow the
registration of a jar file containing the given driver class.
