Description

If a Derby database is corrupted by dual boot or for some other reason, it is really necessary to create a new database and transfer the data. Currently there is not a utility to do this.

It would be good to have a tool which given a corrupted database would attempt to salvage the data it can by creating a new database and transferring the data while preserving the state of the original corrupted db for analysis
