Yep, that worked perfectly. I misunderstood what the GUI was looking for...
I thought that it was asking me to tell it the name of the factory (i.e.
something provided by Weblogic) that it could use to find or create
datasources. Weblogic does have a DataSourceFactory class, but it's used
for something very different from what I was trying to do..
Thanks for the help.

Could it be because of the dot at the end of the list address above? I
checked the server logs, your email is there, so you should be able to
post. Anyway, no problem, I am sending a copy to the list.

Very cool! I am glad that our ORM approach is finally being appreciated
by the community.

Don't know the Weblogic specifics, however the general procedure is the
following:
1. Configure a DataSource to be available via JNDI on WebLogic. You
know better how to do that.
2. Instead of DriverDataSourceFactory select JNDIDataSourceFactory.
3. Step (2) should result in "Location" field becoming editable. Type
your JNDI DataSource name in the location field.
BTW, DataNode panel in the Modeler will likely be redesigned pretty
soon to make it less confusing.
Hope this helps.
