Description Peter Nabbefeld 2016-12-02 22:18:21 UTC 
In the Design view of persistence.xml editor, You can add a new persistence library, but it's not possible to use it.

1. I've created a DataNucleus library from jar files.
2. I tried to select it in the drop down list; even restarted NB, without any effect.

Also, e.g. for Hibernate there may be multiple providers, which should be selectable.

IMHO, it would be best to check for META-INF/services/javax.persistence.spi.PersistenceProvider and add implementations to the drop down list. (I'd prefer not to use lookup at this point, because of issue #269101)
