I think so, too :)
So, I'm looking at src/include/utils/errcodes.h in CVS tip, and I see
what looks to me like two columns in a table:
sqlstate (e.g. 0100C)
warning (e.g. ERRCODE_WARNING_DYNAMIC_RESULT_SETS_RETURNED)
this would make an excellent table to have handy. How to make sure
that it is, in fact, available, and that its contents match
errcodes.h? Here is a perl hack for parsing errcodes.h:
#!/usr/bin/perl -wl
use strict;
open F, "<errcodes.h" or die "Can't open errcodes.h: $!";
while(<F>) {
chomp;
next unless (/^#define\s+ERRCODE_(\S+)\s+MAKE_SQLSTATE\('(.*)'\).*$/);
# print;
my ($warning, $sqlstate) = ($1, $2);
$warning =~ s/^ERRCODE_//;
$sqlstate =~ s/\W//g; # clean up
my $sql = "INSERT INTO sqlstates (sqlstate, warning) VALUES ($sqlstate,
$warning);";
print $sql;
# Now, do the inserts...but where?
}
Cheers,
D
