[news.eclipse.dtp] Unable to connect to a DB2 8.x database

[jperkins@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (JSP )]

I am using Datatools 1.6.2 (although this didn't work in 1.6.1 either).

When I select DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows from the Connection Profile 
Types and then open the "New Driver Definition" dialog, I only see the 
following two options:

IBM Data Server Driver for JDBC  V9.1
Other Driver V9.1

The problem is that I am using an 8.x driver and nothing shows up for 
previous versions of DB2.

I get this error when I attempt to test the connection:
java.lang.AbstractMethodError: com.ibm.db2.jcc.a.f.getJDBCMajorVersion()I

	at org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.Worker.run(Worker.java:55)

I can actually connect if I use the Generic JDBC connection profile type 
but that gives me another issue, plus I can't get any information when my 
code accesses the connection profile because it's generic.

Am I doing something wrong?  Are previous versions of DB2 not supported 
any more?
