According to the doco, getUpdateCounts():-
Returns:
an array of int containing the update counts for the updates that
were executed successfully before this error occurred. Or, if the
driver continues to process commands after an error, one of the
following for every command in the batch:
1. an update count
2. Statement.SUCCESS_NO_INFO to indicate that the command executed
successfully but the number of rows affected is unknown
3. Statement.EXECUTE_FAILED to indicate that the command failed to
execute successfully
I do not know if the Postgres "driver continues to process commands
after an error" but if it does then the array should contain 10 entries
and one would have the "Statement.EXECUTE_FAILED".
Tomorrow, I'll dig a bit deeper if nobody else can explain this.
