You should be able to accomplish this by overriding the
IServerVersionProvider methods, using the Version() constructor directly
(e.g. new Version(10,2,0,"1.0 - Production")).  Obviously, there may be
problems doing this given the discussion in a parallel thread, w.r.t.
extending JDBCConnection.

So long as the information can be specified correctly via an extension (as
stated above), I don't think it would be necessary to modify the way the
version information is collected for the generic JDBC connection profile.

As an aside, the version information may be used by other components, which
is why it is wrapped by an object in this way (e.g. STP deployment
framework uses this to determine whether or not a package may be deployed
to a specific server, which is represented by a connection profile).

Hope that helps,
