Hello, The documentation explains well how to use the 'sqlca' for error handling: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/13/ecpg-errors.html#ECPG-SQLCA An error message is stored in sqlca.sqlerrm.char sqlerrmc[SQLERRMC_LEN]. My question is: Is there some way to get the exact failing ESQL/C statement, because only the line number does not help in our case.
