How do we capture what the SQLCODE And/Or SQLSTATE

[David Coulthard]

The application I'm working on throws the following exception:

 org.apache.openjpa.persistence.PersistenceException: DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-803, SQLSTATE=23505

This error occurs when a duplicate key exception is encountered.

My aim is to inspect the error message and act accordingly. i.e.

If (SQLCODE==-803 && SQLSTATE==23505) 
        Do Something();
else
         ErrorOut ...

How do I get access to the SQLCODE and SQLSTATE so that I can acheive this?

Then you're going about it the wrong way. The SQLException class has methods which specifically address your requirements. Just use them.
