Good point, but I guess most of the errors produced are pgsql
specific. If I remember right Sybase had several different SQL types of error
mapped to one of the standard error codes.
Also the JDBC API provides methods to look at the database dependent error
code and standard error code. I've found both useful when working with
Sybase.
