Just remember that one of the main reasons that there's an awkward
display of tons of JARs now is that the DB2 driver (did? does?)
require 3 JARs to all be added in order to function, and only one of
those has any kind of driver implementation AFAIK. (I think one is a
license and not sure about the other.) I think there is at least one
other multi-JAR driver out there too.
I think it would be nice if we showed a single combo box, perhaps with
just the driver JARs listed, and then had a checkbox where if you
clicked it then the page would adjust to let you select multiple
arbitrary JARs instead.
Thanks,
Aaron

Well anyway, if you are going to filter by the class, you still have the
"problem" of not seeing all its dependent classes/jars... But I really think
it shouldn't be a big deal in this context.
Talking about the performance hit related to this kind of filtering, it can
be avoided if you keep track of those classes since you install it into your
repository folder. What do you think about it?
This initial idea in terms of filtering aims to make the information shown
really useful to the console user (system operators and developers)...
And instead of just filtering the java.sql.Driver implementations, it could
be instructed to look at XAResource implementations as well...
