So lets say you have .frm file for the table and you need to recover CREATE TABLE statement for this table. In particular when we do Innodb Recovery we often get .frm files and some mess in the Innodb tablespace from which we have to get data from. Of course we could relay on old backups (and we do ask for them for a different reason anyway) but there is never guaranty there were no schema changes in between.

So how to recover CREATE TABLE from .frm file ?
