SQLSTATE
Programs calling a database which accords to the SQL standard receive an indication about the success or failure of the call. This return code - which is called SQLSTATE - consists of 5 bytes. They are divided into two parts: the first and second bytes contain a class and the following three a subclass. Each class belongs to one of four categories: "S" denotes "Success", "W" denotes "Warning", "N" denotes "No data" and "X" denotes "Exception".
- Real DBMSs are free to define additional values for SQLSTATE to handle those features which are beyond the standard. Such values must use one of the characters or as the first byte of class or subclass.
- In addition to SQLSTATE the SQL command
GET DIAGNOSTICS
offers more details about the last executed SQL command. - In very early versions of the SQL standard the return code was called SQLCODE and used a different coding schema.
