How to use HSQLDB as a datasource in Websphere Application Server?

I try to set up a local development infrastructure and I want to use HSQLDB as a datasource with my WAS 6.1. I already know that I have to use Apache DBCP to get a connection pooling, but I'm stuck when my application tries to get the first connection.

What I've done

In WAS I created a JDBC provider with the class org.apache.commons.dbcp.cpdsadapter.DriverAdapterCPDS and removed everything from the classpath input field. Then I put commons-dbcp.jar, commons-pool.jar and hsqldb.jar in MYAPPSERVERDIRECTORY/lib/ext.

Then I created a new datasource with that provider. I added the following custom properties:

My Problem

When I run my application and the first connection to the database is made, I get the following exception:

---- Begin backtrace for Nested Throwables
java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driverDSRA0010E: SQL-Status = 08001, Fehlercode = 0

Any tips on this? I suspect I'm using a wrong class from hsqldb, or maybe my JDBC url is wrong...

In the example given in BDCP docs, the org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver class is used as the driver. The org.hsqldb.jdbc.JDBCDriver is supported only in HSQLDB 2.x, but the other class is supported by all versions of HSQLDB.
