Rethrow SQL error

Not very interesting, but I use it all the time.



BEGIN TRY

begin tran

-- RAISERROR with severity 11-19 will cause execution to
-- jump to the CATCH block.
RAISERROR ('Error raised in TRY block.', -- Message text.
16, -- Severity.
1 -- State.
);

commit tran
END TRY
BEGIN CATCH
DECLARE @ErrorMessage NVARCHAR(4000);
DECLARE @ErrorSeverity INT;
DECLARE @ErrorState INT;

SELECT
@ErrorMessage = ERROR_MESSAGE(),
@ErrorSeverity = ERROR_SEVERITY(),
@ErrorState = ERROR_STATE();

rollback tran

-- Use RAISERROR inside the CATCH block to return error
-- information about the original error that caused
-- execution to jump to the CATCH block.
RAISERROR (@ErrorMessage, -- Message text.
@ErrorSeverity, -- Severity.
@ErrorState -- State.
);
END CATCH;
