You can add any one of the predefined drivers by choosing Databases Drivers
in the Runtime tab of the Explorer). After you add a driver, you can test the
driver to ensure that it is compatible with the Database Explorer.
To add your own driver:
The IDE uses this name only for display purposes.
COM.pointbase.jdbc.jdbcUniversalDriver.
The template can represent a URL that is not the real URL; you can complete
the URL later when you connect. For example, you can now add: jdbc:pointbase://<HOST>[:PORT]/[DB]/
Later, you can remove a driver by selecting it in the Explorer, right-clicking, and choosing Delete, or you can open the property sheet and modify its configurations. You can also remove the driver using the keyboard.

Adding a new driver just creates a template for
new connections. The IDE does not actually try to use that driver or check
to make sure it is the correct one until a connection is made using the
driver.
