Provide public database property for determining database format version
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-4259
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4259
Project: Derby
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Services
Affects Versions: 10.6.0.0
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.
