Packageflash.errors
Classpublic class SQLError
InheritanceSQLError Inheritance Error Inheritance Object

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions: AIR 1.0

A SQLError instance provides detailed information about a failed operation.

In asynchronous execution mode, when an error occurs with a SQL database operation the SQLConnection or SQLStatement instance dispatches a SQLErrorEvent object. Information about the error in the form of a SQLError instance can be accessed from the SQLErrorEvent object's error property.

In synchronous execution mode, when an error occurs with a SQL database operation the SQLConnection or SQLStatement instance throws a SQLError exception, which can be handled by enclosing the error-throwing code in a try..catch block.

This class provides properties containing the error details (specifying the specific type of error that occured), a text message containing the details of the error, and the operation that caused the error to occur.

detailArguments

property
detailArguments:Array  [read-only]

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions: AIR 1.1

An array of String values that can be used to construct a locale specific detail error message.

This property contains the value or values that are substituted into the details property error message to indicate the specific database object or objects (table name, column name, and so forth) associated with the error. For example, suppose an error with the following details property error message occurs in an application:

there is already another table or index with this name: 'my_table'

In that case, the SQLError instance's detailArguments property would contain a single element with the value "my_table".

Using the detailID property an application can identify the specific details error message. The application can provide alternate text for the end user in the language of his or her locale. The argument values in the detailArguments array can be substituted in the appropriate position in the error message string. This is useful for applications that wish to display the details property error message for this error directly to end users in a specific locale.

For a list of the detailID values and their corresponding English error details message and arguments, see "SQL error detail messages, ids, and arguments."



Implementation
    public function get detailArguments():Array
    

detailID

property 
detailID:int  [read-only]

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions: AIR 1.1

A reference number associated with the specific detail message. This value is used to support locale specific translations of the details property error message.

This property provides a unique identifier for each details message. (For any type of error with a specific errorID there are multiple errors with unique detailID values.) Using this identifier together with the value or values in the detailArguments array, an application can provide locale specific detail error messages. This is useful for applications that wish to display the details property error message for this error directly to end users in a specific locale.

For a list of the detailID values and their corresponding English error details message and arguments, see "SQL error detail messages, ids, and arguments."



Implementation
    public function get detailID():int
    

details

property 
details:String  [read-only]

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions: AIR 1.0

Details of the current error. This provides additional specific information about the error that occurred.



Implementation
    public function get details():String
    

operation

property 
operation:String  [read-only]

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions: AIR 1.0

A value indicating the operation that was being attempted when the error occurred. This value is one of the constants defined in the SQLErrorOperation class.



Implementation
    public function get operation():String
