The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 2593 PostgreSQL version: 8.1.3 Description: Improper implimentation of SQLException Details: The vendor error code is returned in getSQLState(), instead of getError(). At least this is the case for 23505 (ERROR: duplicate key violates unique constraint ...)
Postgresql does not have specific vendor error codes and always returns 0 for SQLException.getErrorCode(). Postgresql uses standard SQL State values only. These often have characters in them so they cannot also be returned as the vendor error code.
Perhaps the problem is that this page is referring to error codes when a more careful reading shows that it is really talking about sql state values?
