public class SQLException** extends Exception

The SQLException class provides information on a database access error.

Each SQLException provides several kinds of information:

  • a string describing the error. This is used as the Java Exception message, and is available via the getMesage() method
  • A "SQLstate" string which follows the XOPEN SQLstate conventions. The values of the SQLState string as described in the XOPEN SQL spec.
  • An integer error code that is vendor specific. Normally this will be the actual error code returned by the underlying database.
  • A chain to a next Exception. This can be used to provided additional error information.
