Hello,

I have an application that uses h2 as its database end (embedded).
The database contains technical data that will be essential to the
running of my application.   The amount of this data is massive, in
such that it is impractical for end users to install the application
and wait for a terribly long time for the application to parse and
reconstruct the data from scratch from given files.  I last checked it
took about 4-5 hours on a fast machine.

I wonder whether it is possible to bundle up the database files for
deployment, in such that these files are instantly ready for use by
the database upon deployment.  My current thinking is to use
"jdbc:h2:file:data/test" instead of "jdbc:h2:~/test", and then create
"data" directory (under the current directory of the program), and
copy the database files there upon installation.  Is there any flaw to
this approach? Or is there a better approach?   The problem is that I
will not be there during installation, and I also don't have any
control on what kind of machine this application is going to be
installed (or even what kind of OS).

Any advice?

Thanks.
