I think the problem might be the way the MySQL views schemas. Unlike
some other databases such as Oracle and DB2, in MySQL the terms
"database" and "schema" are synonymous. Notice that this is reflected
in the Data Source Explorer representation for MySQL. Let's say you
connect to the MySQL database "test". Then you see "test" as the
database name at the top of the connection tree, plus you see it again
under the node "Schemas". No other schemas are shown, since there are
no other schemas for the "test" database.
This problem could be potentially be fixed by some pretty serious
changes to the "enablement" support for MySQL. As a work-around, you can
create separate database connections for each MySQL database you want to
work with. (By the way, in the connection be sure to specify the
database name both in the "Database" field in the Connection Profile and
in the connection URL. If you leave it out of the URL, then a bug
prevents the tables from showing in the DSE.)
