package org.hibernate.exception.spi;

import java.io.Serializable;
import java.sql.SQLException;

import org.hibernate.JDBCException;

Defines a contract for implementations that know how to convert a SQLException
into Hibernate's JDBCException hierarchy.  Inspired by Spring's
SQLExceptionTranslator.

Implementations must have a constructor which takes a ViolatedConstraintNameExtracter parameter. 
 Implementations may implement Configurable if they need to perform configuration steps prior to first use.
