This is crazy but in all documentation I looked at, no explanation is written.

All you can find in the documentation is:

public void execute(boolean script, boolean export, boolean justDrop, boolean justCreate)

Maybe someone can document it here or share a link to a blog?

There's a bit more documentation that I wrote in my personal wiki page: **Don't touch it with a barge pole** - in big block red letters. – Augusto Mar 11 '13 at 15:10
@Augusto It actually can be quite useful... in particular, I use it for setting up in-memory databases for use in unit testing. However, I would *never* run it on a production database! – sharakan Mar 11 '13 at 15:14

script: if true, output the required SQL to the console.
export: if true, actually execute the SQL to the configured data source.
justDrop: if true, only output/execute SQL required to delete data structures.
justCreate: if true, only output/execute SQL required to create data structures.
