Auto increment of key in TopLink (by Anizio)

Hi friends!
Sameone know how I do auto increment of key when I insert an object on the data base with topLink?
I have used to Jdeveloper 1013
Thank

Hi Doug
I tryed but happened a error.
I do this: in my descriptor, I enable the options "Use sequencing", then, this is equals:
Name: SEQ_ID_TITULAR
Table: DEVPORTAL.CAD_TITULAR
Fiels: CAD_TITULAR.TIT_ID
In the name I put the sequence name created in the database, but an error called "invalid number" happen.
Can you help me ?

CMP with auto-increment primary key.Please help

Hi all,
I new with EJB technology so please bear with me.
Env: 2k Server, SQL 2k Server
Sun One(Forte EE) to develop and deploy CMP
I got the servlet to load the data from CMP's business mehods
is fine. Calling the findPrimaryKey is OK too. Even when I try to insert the row into DB is OK. At this time I make key PK is int AND NOT
AUTO INCREMENT everything is OK. In the ejbCreate method
I called setPK, setName ...It's fine.
The problem comes when I try to make the PK(still int) to be auto-increment field.In ejbCreate not call setPK because of in SunOne IDE, under the J2EE RI tab of EJB Module property, the Auto generate SQL I set to false so that I can
modify the SQL statement under SQL Deployment.createRow not taking the PK. I thought that will do it but it doesnot like it at all (I got Exception with transaction rollback)I just want to insert a single row with ID and name that's all.
Then I changed the SQL statment take PK and changed the Auto Generate SQL to True and in ejbCreate the PK as one of the args and called setPK this time with null object. It doesn't like neither.(Exception Cannot set the primary key with null. That is reasonable.)
I thought using EJB fast and clean technique would help developer to develop application with easiness.
So I realy stuck with this, I wonder ejb 2.0 support for auto increment at all because I would like to take advantage of the auto increment feature of the DB without writing the PrimaryKeySequence generator at all.
Am I missing something with this? May be just config thing to tell
that my PK is auto-increment field so that when the ejbCreate called it knows not taking the PK or even not asking to call setPK in ejbCreate.
Any help would appreciated.

How can I use a mySQL database schema with numeric auto increment primary key instead of GUID?

Hello!
I'm using the TestStand "MySQL Insert (NI)" database schema with GUID as primary key. So everything works fine.
But I prever using numeric values as primary key, because the database is in conjunction with another database which uses numeric values as primary key.
Is this possible?
Has anyone an idea how I can modify the "Generic Recordset (NI)" for use with MySQL?
Thanks!
Configuration:
Microsoft Windows XP
TestStand 3.1
MySQL 4.1.12a
MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver
Brosig

Adam -
The TestStand Database Logging feature does not allow you to run a separate SQL command after executing the command for a statement(table), so I do not think that you can use an auto incrementing column for the tables. There is just no way to get it back in a generic way. One option that I tried is something similar to the Oracle schema where you call a store procedure to return a sequence ID for each record that you want to add.
So you would have to create the following sequence table in MySQL:
CREATE TABLE sequence (id INT NOT NULL);
INSERT INTO sequence VALUES (0);
Then create a stored procedure as shown below that will increment the sequence value and return it in a recordset:
CREATE PROCEDURE `getseqid`()
BEGIN
        UPDATE sequence SET id=LAST_INSERT_ID(id+1);
        SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID();
END
Then update the MySQL tables to use INT primary and foreign key values, so the TestStand MySQL SQL file to create all tables would have text like this:
CREATE TABLE UUT_RESULT
ID    INT PRIMARY KEY,
~
CREATE TABLE STEP_RESULT
ID    INT PRIMARY KEY,
UUT_RESULT   INT NOT NULL,
~
Then update the schema primary and foreign key columns in the TestStand Database Options dialog box to be INT to match the table. For the primary key columns, you will have to set the Primary Key Type to "Get Value from Recordset" and set the Primary Key Command Text to "call getseqid()". This will call the stored procedure to determine the next value to use as the ID value.
Hope this helps...

How to have an auto increment primary key in HDBDD

Hello,
Using a HDBDD file I am creating a table in which I need a primary key(recordId) which is auto generated by the DB.
What would be the way to do this?
My hdbdd file:
namespace sap.mobile.data;
@Schema : 'SAP_TEST'
context Sample {
@Catalog.tableType : #COLUMN
entity Details {
text : LargeString;
level : String(10);
timestamp : UTCTimestamp;
recordId : ?

Such syntax for calculated columns isn't supported yet by CDS/HDBDD. The work around people would use today is to use a Sequence in any logic that does an insert into this table.

Auto Increment Primary Keys

I am trying to migrate from SQL Server. I want to setup tables which generate sequencial Primary keys on adding records to the table. I have a VB application which is using ADO with an ODBC connection. How does one use the Oracle Enterprise Console Manager to set a Primary Key to increment on the adding of new records automatically. In SQL Server one just needs to set an Identity, Identity Seed and Identitiy Increment. In Access there is a datatype called AutoNumber. Help would be greatly appreciated. I am using 9i with a standalone Enterprise Console Manager. Thanks in Advance.

You first have to create a sequence and then the trigger below:
Instead of data in single quotes(') you must specify the appropriate for your db names
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER 'Schema'.'trigger_name' BEFORE
INSERT ON 'table_name'
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
SELECT 'sequence_name'.nextval into :new.'column_name' from dual;
END
;

CMP with Auto-increment Primary Key problem

I'm trying to set a column as IDENTITY in PointBase and have the app server utilize this in the CMP beans. I followed the instructions from the tutorial:
- In the deployment descriptor, the primary key class is defined as a java.lang.Object. The primary key field is not specified.
- In the home interface, the argument of the findByPrimaryKey method must be java.lang.Object.
- In the entity bean class, the return type of the ejbCreate method must be a java.lang.Object.
Below is (a fragment of) my deployment descriptor:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

In the admin-serv/logs directory I get the follow message (bad place for the logs, took me a while to find where it was putting it!):
[24/Sep/2002:16:33:57] WARNING ( 4165): Validation error in bean DocumentType: Warning: All primary key columns in primary table DOCUMENT_TYPE of the bean corresponding to the generated class com.sun.itstar.j2ee.projectdocmgt.ejb.DocumentTypeBean_387898907_JDOState must be mapped to key fields.
Map the following primary key columns to key fields: DOCUMENT_TYPE.ID. If you already have fields mapped to these columns, verify that they are key fields.

Great! This worked. Here are some clear steps:
1. delete the field from the CMP
2. delete any business methods that you might have for the field
3. go to the properties of the bean, find the primary key property. Set the property to Unkown Primey Key Class (java.lang.Object)
Now there is a bigger problem. CMR fields. In ejbPostCreate() the bean gets its own pk and looks up other related beans. Now that I have removed the accessor to the pk field (and the pk field from the bean), how do I lookup the relationships?
I need some method that I can call from within ejbPostCreate() that will return the primary key...
I tried adding the field back in but not as the primary key. That generated an exception that said you cannot do that. If the field is the pk it must be marked as the pk.
Any ideas?

Not authorised to have auto increment trigger on server

Hello all. I need a few triggers set up, I have no problems setting up sequences and "before insert" triggers on my home PC setup but on the live server where I study I do not have the authority.
I got around this before by using Forms so I set the trigger at Form level.
I am developing a DB system that will at some stage in the future use Forms, but for now it will use HTML forms via a web browser.
I need to have the primary key for user accessible tables to be auto incremented (on the server where I study), but how can get around the authority issue ??
Any ideas are extremely welcome !!

Hello all - yeah I am on a course. I too have no idea why they will not allow the students to create triggers at table level.
The 1st system I developed at home I had auto incremented primary keys. It was using Oracle Forms as the front end. Because I am the admin on my home setup I didn't have any problems.
When I went to the course site to implement exactly what I had at home (which worked 100% properly) inserting data via the forms was not working. I had no idea why. the lecturer guy took a look at my code and told me its because of the trigger, I do not have authority to create triggers on the server.
"create or replace trigger cust_trg
before insert on customer
for each row
begin
select cust_seq.nextval into :new.cust_id
from dual;
end;"
The above code works fine on my home PC. I used Pre Insert triggers on the block on the Form instead to get around the problem (I presumed it was because they wanted us to learn Forms more thoroughly).
This next project does not involve forms but they will not change my access rights so I don't have a clue as to how to get an auto incremented primary key whilst using a HTML form.

Prefixing and auto-increment field

Hello
I have a web application (php/mySQL) that has an auto-increment primary key field called job_id.
Could anyone help me add a prefix to this?
I want to add the year and month (YYMM/) in front of the field (e.g. 0811/1234 then 0811/1235 assuming current month and year is Nov 2008).
Maybe Im wrong about adding the prefix to the primary key. Should I maybe add an additional field to maintain this?
Any advice greatly appreciated...
Regards
Paul

Hi Paul,
MySQL table and column names may only consist of letters, underscores and numbers anyway, so the date format you´d like to use would lead to errors due to the forward slashes.
Maybe Im wrong about adding the prefix to the primary key.
I don´t know what you want to achieve with this approach, but I´d really leave the name of the Primary Key column "as is" and use a different column for storing data which contains such date values.
Cheers,

Retrieve new row's auto-increment key from dataprovider

** cross posted on SDN JSC Forum and Netbeans J2EE Nabble forum **
I have a page that is bound to a MySQL table rowset or, alternately, a new (append()'ed) row. The row's Primary Key is a MySQL auto-increment Integer (translates to a Long.) After commit()'ing the the new row to the database, how would I then get the new row's ID (fieldname "ID")? If I refresh() the dataprovider and try to get the value an error is thrown.
Some background: The dataprovider's backing rowset has a query parameter for the ID field. I set it to "0" if the page is creating a new row or I set it to the unique ID if the page is displaying an existing row. After the new row is committed, I need the new ID set the query parameter and synch up related rows in different tables that are keyed off the ID in this (master) table. I'd like to do this without "guessing" what the ID would be in advance as that method isn't foolproof in heavy usage.
Additionally, it strikes me as a useful workaround if the unique ID was a UUID (mySQL UUID() function) that does not run the risk of any concurrency issues. Has anyone used this solution in VWP? How would I make the call for the underying DB (in this case MySQL, but could be anything) to generate the UUID? Is the call DB specific or is there a JDBC equivalent?
UPDATE: never mind the GUID question, I can use the java.rmi.dgc.VMID class to autogenerate unique GUID's for this purpose. Being from a Lotus Notes background, I'm used to the power and flexibility such Unique ID's bring to the app. dev's portfolio.
Thanks in adv. for any help .

JSF together with JBoss Seam offers some real good possibilities to improve developer productivity. Right now, with JSF you can create forms where fields are persistent (saved in a database), but you have to write code to persist fields. In Notes/Domino, every field you drop in the form is automatically set to persist without writing a single piece of code. JBoss Seam aims to provide the missing glue to tie the JSF beans with business logic (EJB) and persistent layer (JPA). I think tools for Seam are still not mature. I would love to see JSC/VWB utilizing Seam. I know there is a NetBean plugin for Seam but it was written for old NetBeans (not VWP or JSC), so it doesn't work with the visual web pack where you can drag and drop JSF components.

How to get the auto increment integer primary key value of a new record

I have a DB table that has a auto increment integer primary key, if I insert a new record into it by SQL statement "INSERT INTO...", how can I get the integer primary key value of that newly created record?

Well maybe someone knows a better method, but one workaround would be to add a dummy field to your table. When a new record is inserted this dummy field will be null. Then you can select your record with SELECT keyField FROM yourTable WHERE dummyField IS NULL. Once you've got the key number, you then update the record with a non-null value in the dummyField. Bit of a bodge, but it should work...
Another alternative is, instead of using an Autonumbered key field, you could assign your own number by getting the MAX value of the existing keys (with SELECT MAX(keyField) FROM yourTable) and using that number + 1 for your new key. Might be a problem if you have lots of records and frequent deletions though.

Primary key column auto increment

Hello,
In my Azure SQL Database I noticed that weird thing is happening. I have table with primary key column with auto increment, and all works fine, on new insert that value automatically increment, but every now and then, that value, for no reason, increments
for 1000.
For instance i have in DB values in this order: 1, 2, 3, 4, 1001, 1002, 1003, 2004, 2005, 3001, 3002...
Why is this happening?

Hello ,
you can see this thread :
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17012339/windows-azure-sql-database-identity-auto-increment-column-skips-values
It's seems that SQL Server work with sequence and block 1000 values. In the cloud, your SQL Azure Database can be move from one server to an other or restarted and so a new sequence is used. That's why you jump from 4 to 1001.

Utilizing auto-increment/identity fields for primary key with "application" identity

Is it possible to utilise an auto-increment (identity in MS SQL Server)
field for the primary key field when using "application" identity?

To the best of my knowledge, you cannot use auto-increment. Due to the
differences in the way that identities are generated at the datastore
(upon insert) vs. JDO (upon makePersistent), this feature of SQLServer is
not supported yet.
However, we do provide a variety of other ways of generating identity
which may provide a closer fit to what you want, and
our users may have some experience in solving your problem.

DB Adapter - PostgreSQL - Primary key - auto increment handling

Hi,
I have to connect to a PostgreSQL DB. I have a table in which has a primary key called seq_id. This seq_id is being incremented using a sequence.
I have to configure the DB adapter for this table. The problem is that while creating the adapter it does not allow me to deselect the primary key (seq_id). Because of this I have to supply a value for the seq_id while inseting the data using the adapter. But this defeats the purpose of sequence (auto increment).
Is there a way to get around this and to avoid specifying the value for seq_id while using the DB Adapter and let it get inserted using the sequence of the DB?
Thanks,
Sanjay

can any one suggest me in this to achieve my condition.

in this am facing an one small issue.
intial value of the primary key is 1.
for this value i have entered the row of data.
again i have clicked on the create button.
then the value of the primary key has increased to 2.
for this value i didnt entered the row of data to databse.
just i closed the browser.
if i run the run page again, the value of primary key is 3.
my requirment is i shd get the value of primary key is "2".
