Hello Philipp,

the JCRBrowser just takes whatever you configured in the repository.xml 
and does not depend on a specific configuration.

thanks for the quick reply!

but when I try to connect to a repository that uses a datasource in the
PersistenceManager configuration, I get the following error dialog: 
"It was not possible to login. Please check the credentials" with the
following details: Unable to create connection.: Unable to create
connection.

Do I need to create a datasource in Eclipse, so JCRBrowser can use it?
(how?) 

When I connect to a test repository that has a different persistence manager
I can browse the repository (both have the same credentials)


ahh ok: When you use the Local Jackrabbit Repository the JCRBrowser 
starts the repository within the plugin by using the classpath that is 
configured for this Eclipse plugin. Of course this works for usual use 
cases that don't need additional or other versions of classes or jars. 
If you need a new persistance manager class in the classpath I recommend 
dropping Jackrabbit in a Tomcat and configuring your custom classpath 
there. Then you can use the "Remote Java Content Repository" connection 
of the JCRBrowser to browse through the content.

Bye,

Sandro
