    Kieran's very helpful blog was one of the many things I looked at,
    but it doesn't really address my question which probably is not well
    posed.

    Am I wrong in thinking that can dynamically change database
    connections in Entity Modeler with the New Database Icon?
    This sets up something like the following in the index.eomeld userinfo:

                 databaseConfigs =
                 {
                     MySqlConfig =
                     {
                         connectionDictionary =
                         {
                             password = foobar;
                             URL = jdbc:mysql://dapper.gs.net/mydb;
                             username = rdp;
                         };
                         prototypeEntityName = EOJDBCMysqlPrototypes;
                     };
                     OpenBaseConfig =
                     {
                         connectionDictionary =
                         {
                             URL = jdbc:openbase://127.0.0.1/MedicalMan;
                         };
                         prototypeEntityName = EOJDBCOpenBasePrototypes;
                     };
                 };

    How do I get an entity to glom onto one of these settings, e.g.
    MySqlConfig.
