title: Recover lost Java source code due to previous abnormal exit of eclipse
body: <p>My java code which almost spanned 3000 lines was open on Eclipse code window as I was working on that. Suddenly my PC froze and I had to restart it. Later when I opened eclipse it threw some error saying some org.eclipse... file was corrupt, dint bother to write it down, my fault :(
  But later it showed "could not read metadata for workspace dir.metadata.plugins\org.eclipse.core.resources.root.indexes\properties.index" in my java code file.
  I restarted eclipse to get rid of the error, but the result was disastrous; the java code file was empty. My worry is, after my last backup, I had done a lot of changes to it here n there.</p>
  
  <p>Finally I could figure it out. jst need to compare with local history :P</p>
