>             Project: Derby
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Documentation
>    Affects Versions: 10.6.1.0
>            Reporter: Kathey Marsden

>            Priority: Minor

> It would be useful  to have a public interface for determining the database format when running in soft upgrade mode.  In the derby-user thread:
> http://www.nabble.com/Hard-upgrade-failing--td23826558.html#a23835534
> Evan pointed out he was using an undocumented property 'DataDictionaryVersion' for this purpose, but this is not ideal because it does not conform to the normal derby.* naming convention  and is not documented.
> Discussion in DERBY-4255 determined that there are not currently DatabaseMetaData methods that achieve the same result.
