DB-Library Error Severities
The following table lists all error severities with their numerical equivalents and an explanation of the type of error. When an error occurs or when a message is sent, these numerical equivalents are passed to the currently installed, user-supplied error handler.
Error severity levels are defined in the Sqlfront.h header file. Your program must include Sqlfront.h if it refers to these severity levels.
| Error severity | Severity number | Description |
|---|---|---|
| EXINFO | 1 | Informational, nonerror. |
| EXUSER | 2 | User error. |
| EXNONFATAL | 3 | Nonfatal error. |
| EXCONVERSION | 4 | Error in DB-Library data conversion. |
| EXSERVER | 5 | The server has returned an error flag. |
| EXTIME | 6 | Timeout period exceeded while waiting for a response from the server — the DBPROCESS is still alive. |
| EXPROGRAM | 7 | Coding error in user program. |
| EXRESOURCE | 8 | Running out of resources — the DBPROCESS may be dead. |
| EXCOMM | 9 | Failure in communication with server — the DBPROCESS is dead. |
