<h1 class="topictitle1">Handlers in SQL triggers</h1>
<div><p>A handler in an SQL trigger gives the SQL trigger the ability to
recover from an error or log information about an error that has occurred
while processing the SQL statements in the trigger routine body. </p>
<div class="section"><p>In the following example, there are two handlers defined: one
to handle the overflow condition and a second handler to handle SQL exceptions.</p>
<pre><strong>CREATE TABLE</strong> ExcessInventory(Description <strong>VARCHAR</strong>(50), ItemWeight <strong>SMALLINT</strong>)
<strong>CREATE TABLE</strong> YearToDateTotals(TotalWeight <strong>SMALLINT</strong>)
<strong>CREATE TABLE</strong> FailureLog(Item <strong>VARCHAR</strong>(50), ErrorMessage <strong>VARCHAR</strong>(50), ErrorCode <strong>INT</strong>)
<strong>CREATE TRIGGER</strong> InventoryDeleteTrigger
<strong>AFTER DELETE ON </strong>ExcessInventory
<strong>REFERENCING OLD AS</strong> old_row
<strong>FOR EACH ROW MODE DB2ROW</strong>
<strong>BEGIN</strong>
  <strong>DECLARE</strong> sqlcode <strong>INT</strong>;
  <strong>DECLARE</strong> invalid_number condition <strong>FOR</strong> '22003';
  <strong>DECLARE</strong> exit handler <strong>FOR</strong> invalid_number
  <strong>INSERT INTO</strong> FailureLog <strong>VALUES</strong>(old_row.Description,
        'Overflow occurred in YearToDateTotals', sqlcode);
  <strong>DECLARE</strong> exit handler <strong>FOR</strong> sqlexception
  <strong>INSERT INTO</strong> FailureLog <strong>VALUES</strong>(old_row.Description,
        'SQL Error occurred in InventoryDeleteTrigger', sqlcode);
  <strong>UPDATE</strong> YearToDateTotals <strong>SET</strong> TotalWeight=TotalWeight +
        old_row.itemWeight;
<strong>END</strong></pre>
<p> First, the current values for the tables are initialized.</p>
<pre><strong>INSERT INTO</strong> ExcessInventory <strong>VALUES</strong>('Desks',32500)
<strong>INSERT INTO</strong> ExcessInventory<strong> VALUES</strong>('Chairs',500)
<strong>INSERT INTO</strong> YearToDateTotals <strong>VALUES</strong>(0)</pre>
<p>When the
first SQL delete statement below is executed, the ItemWeight for the item
"Desks" is added to the column total for TotalWeight in the table YearToDateTotals.
When the second SQL delete statement is executed, an overflow occurs when
the ItemWeight for the item "Chairs" is added to the column total for TotalWeight,
as the column only handles values up to 32767. When the overflow occurs,
the invalid_number exit handler is executed and a row is written to the FailureLog
table. The sqlexception exit handler runs, for example, if the YearToDateTotals
table was deleted by accident. In this example, the handlers are used to
write a log so that the problem can be diagnosed at a later time.</p>
<pre><strong>DELETE FROM</strong> ExcessInventory <strong>WHERE</strong> Description='Desks'
<strong>DELETE FROM</strong> ExcessInventory <strong>WHERE</strong> Description='Chairs'</pre>
