The right way to do so is to query for the SQLSTATE codes.
For instance the jdbc7.4.6 driver supports sqlstate, which you can
retrieve by sqle.getSQLState()
That text of an Error may change across releases but the error code should
be constant.
p.s
I dont do it my self. i just let my users educate themselves :)
