Auto increment variable (global)

hi all,
let say i've a db table with columns sno, sname, marks. and i want to make sno as global auto incremental variable so tht when i insert record sno should get the current incremented value on screen even though the appn restarted/refreshed. how do i do it?
i've created sno in comp.controller and mapped to view controller. it works on insert action, but when i refresh the page sno will set to ZERO. will it be possbile in wd-java?
tnx,
-JB

Hi
We had this situation some time ago and solved it doing these steps:
-Create a java class like this:
public class GlobalCounter{
     private static long longId = -2;
     private static synchronized long getNext(){
          return ++longId;
     public GlobalCounter() {
          if(this.getNext()==-1){
               //get the last id of your DB or Backend
               long lastId = getLastNumberFromBackend();
               this.longId = ++lastId;
What you do here is that you hava a static value that is initialized to -2 (you can change this if you want) and in the constructor method you ask if the getNext value equals -1 you will ask your backend or database to get you the last number, this is only done once because that number should be at least 0 or greater, this static variable will keep the number from the backend and each time you want to increment that value you will call GlobalCounter.getNext(); method. If the server is restarted the you will call the backend or database just once again to get the last number.
To make it short, you only call your backend one time to get the last number every time the AS is restarted but not each time you want to create a new record.
Hope this helps.

Auto increment variable in foreach loop in ssis

i know this has been asked N number of times, but still i have a question for you guys
i have files sitting in FTP location
i am loading the data from the files into tables (no issues)
but i need to assign value to a particular column as -99999999 and then auto increment that number while loading the files into the database
I cannot have auto increment for the that particular column
should i use a derived column, script component, execute sql task?
can somebody point me to the right direction
if it were a single file, assigning the auto incremental number is easy, but with for each loop, i am not able to get the solution
Thanks

Hi Jack,
To achieve your goal, you can use a Row Count Transformation in the Data Flow Task to get row count for each file, and then use an Execute SQL Task after the Data Flow Task to update the total row count variable. Supposing the variable used in the Row Count
Transformation is InsertCount, the variable used to store the total row count is TotalInsertCount. We need to set the ResultSet of the Execute SQL Task to “Single row”, and the SQLStatement to:
DECLARE @Insert_Count INT, @Total_Insert_Count INT
SET @Insert_Count=?
SET @Total_Insert_Count=?
SET @Total_Insert_Count=@Total_Insert_Count + @Insert_Count
SELECT R_Total_Insert_Count=@Total_Insert_Count
Then, set the Parameter Mapping of the Execute SQL Task, we map variable InsertCount and TotalInsertCount to the parameters in the SQL statement respectively. In the ResultSet page of the Execute SQL Task, map the resultset to variable TotalInsertCount.
Please refer to the following screenshot:

Add an auto incremental value to TITLE field.

Hi, i am currently working on a custom list in SharePoint 2010 and there is a title field. I would like to append an auto incremental variable to "Request" to make it look like:
Request 1
Request 2
Request 3
and so on...
As you can see below, i tried to use the calculated value Request+ID, but it didn't work out. So is there anyway to solve this problem?
<input name="ctl00$m$g_0bb0fcf5_65ea_4af9_ba76_7c0babad1a82$ctl00$ctl05$ctl00$ctl00$ctl00$ctl04$ctl00$ctl00$TextField"
type="text" value="[Request-]&[ID]"
maxlength="50" id="ctl00_m_g_0bb0fcf5_65ea_4af9_ba76_7c0babad1a82_ctl00_ctl05_ctl00_ctl00_ctl00_ctl04_ctl00_ctl00_TextField"
title="Title" class="ms-long ms-spellcheck-true" /><br />

Hi andylow,
You can also accomplish this without using a workflow but with a custom form on your list. To do this take the following steps:
Make sure that the title field of your list is not a required value
When you're in the list, click on the List tab in the ribbon
There select "Customize Form"
Your form will now open in InfoPath. In the right hand menu you will see all your data fields.
Make the Title number field "Read Only". To do this right click the field, select properties, click on the second tab and select Read Only
In the menu bar, click on Manage Rules
Now click the Data tab in the menu and select Sumit Options
In the menu that opens select the option to run rules before submit
Now there will be a button available in the menu for Submit Options, click on that
Now you can add rules and actions on the submit action
Create a new Action rule and call it Initial Save
As condition for the rule, set the condition that the Title field must be blank
The first action of the rule will be to Submit the form. When the form is submitted it will be assigned an ID, before that will be blank
Now add an Action to set a fields value.
Select the Title field as the field to set
You can set a hard coded value for the value to set but you can also click the function button, click on that
Now another window opens where you can add fields, functions etc.
Now first select the concat function from the function menu
Then double click the first link in the resulting function and type Request
Now double click the second link and select the ID field
Now get rid of the last remaining arguments in the concat function
Click OK until you're back in InfoPath
Now set one more action to submit the form again
Now ad a second rule and call that Edit
As condition for the rule, set the condition that the Title field must be not blank
Add the Submit Form action for this rule
Now you can publish your form with the Quick Publish button. This is a Blue circle with a white upward arrow and a lightning bolt next to the save button in the top menu bar.
Now when you add a new item and save it, the title will be set to Request&ID. When you edit the form no changes will be made.

How to auto create a global variable with specific variable name in a global vi ?

how to auto create a global variable with specific variable name in a global vi using lv ? Because i need to add a lot of global variable in this global vi. But you know, if i manually add them , it will be a much time-costing work. So i want to use someway to auto generate ? Can i ?? Thanks a lot !

Hi
what aartjan is saying is the way for you. but you can develop an utility which will actually help you create global variables. To get the details on this just have a look at VI Scripting section on LAVA forum.
But i would like you to suggest few things
1. If your programs have so many global variables (Thats why u want utility) then you should take out some time to read about LabVIEW design patterns. I think if programmer follows these practicess he dont need a single global variable.
2. Their are some other ways to achieve similar functionality as of global variables (Uninitialized Shift Registers, Single Element Qs and so on) but they are much faster than global variables.
I am Attaching Whatever Resources i am having I will also attach the template of the design pattern i generaly use in short duration

The great SQL ColdFusion Auto Increment fiasco

Hello all and thanks in advance for your help. I am
working on an Insert Record page using ColdFusion 7, Dreamweaver 8
and SQL Server 2000.
The SQL DB has a table called Articles. The table Articles
has a Primary Key field called ArticleID which is set to a type of
"Numeric, Identity:Yes, Seed:1, Increment:1" and no Null allowed.
I am getting an error message of:
Variable
PAGENUM_RSARTICLES is undefined.
The error occurred in
D:\Inetpub\guardyourself\backend\article_add.cfm: line 107
105 : </cfquery>
106 : <cfset MaxRows_rsArticles=10>
107 : <cfset
StartRow_rsArticles=Min((PageNum_rsArticles-1)*MaxRows_rsArticles+1,Max(rsArticles.Record Count,1))>
So. How do I get the ArticleID field on the CF page to see
what the last SQL row shows for an ArticleID... and then add one?
I'm stumped. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Code for the page in question is as follows or you can just go to :
http://www.guardyourself.org/backend/article_add.cfm

I think there may be a little confusion about what a
uniqueidentifier field type is. You're talking about two separate
concepts as though they are one. To create a field which
"auto-increments" in SQL Server, you need to create the field as a
numeric type and then specify that the field is an identity field
(you can also specify the start and increment values). On insert,
SQL Server will assign values to this field based on the criteria
you supplied. If you do this, you will typically want to omit the
value and field from your ColdFusion inserts as you have described
below.
What you have done instead is to create the field as a
uniqueidentifier which requires a GUID value to be stored there.
You cannot "increment" a GUID. The GUID for new records must either
be generated by SQL Server (using the newID() function) or
externally in your code. You must pass this value on insert from
ColdFusion.
Hope this helps.

Auto Increment ID Field Table in the Oracle Database (insert new record)

I have been using the MySQL. And the ID field of the database table is AUTO INCREMENT. When I insert a new record into a database table, I can have a statement like:
   public void createThread( String receiver, String sender, String title,
                             String lastPostMemberName, String threadTopic,
                             String threadBody, Timestamp threadCreationDate,
                             Timestamp threadLastPostDate, int threadType,
                             int threadOption, int threadStatus, int threadViewCount,
                             int threadReplyCount, int threadDuration )
                             throws MessageDAOSysExceptionand I do not have to put the ID variable in the above method. The table will give the new record an ID number that is equivalent to the ID number of the last record plus one automatically.
Now, I am inserting a new record into an Oracle database table. I am told that I cannot do what I am used to doing with the MySQL database.
How do I revise the createThread method while I have no idea about what the next sequence number shall be?

I am still very confused; in particular, the Java part. Let me try again.
// This part is for the database table creation
-- Component primary key sequence
CREATE SEQUENCE dhsinfo_page_content_seq
    START WITH 0;
-- Trigger for updating the Component primary key
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER DHSInfoPageContent_INSERT_TRIGGER
    BEFORE INSERT ON DHSInfoPageContent //DHSInfoPageContent is the table name
    FOR EACH ROW WHEN (new.ID IS NULL) // ID is the column name for auto increment
    BEGIN
        SELECT dhsinfo_page_content_seq.Nextval
        INTO :ID
        FROM DUAL;
    END;/I am uncertain what to do with my Java code. (I have been working with the MySQL. Changing to the Oracle makes me very confused.
   public void updateContent( int groupID, String pageName, int componentID,
                              String content, Timestamp contentCreationDate )
                               throws contentDAOSysException
   // The above Java statement does not have a value to insert into the ID column
   // in the DHSInfoPageContent table
      Connection conn = null;
      PreparedStatement stmt = null;
      // what to do with the INSERT INTO below. Note the paramether ID.
      String insertSQL = "INSERT INTO DHSInfoPageContent( ID, GroupID, Name, ComponentID, Content, CreationDate ) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)";
      try
         conn = DBConnection.getDBConnection();
         stmt = conn.prepareStatement( insertSQL );
         stmt.setInt( 1, id ); // Is this Java statement redundant?
         stmt.setInt( 2, groupID );
         stmt.setString( 3, pageName );
         stmt.setInt( 4, componentID );
         stmt.setString( 5, content );
         stmt.setTimestamp( 6, contentCreationDate );
         stmt.executeUpdate();
       catch
       finally

Update table column with same auto-increment value, via T-SQL stored procedure

Good Evening to every one,
I have a table 'Contracts' as we can see in the picture below (I exported my data on An Excel Spreadsheet). Table's primary key is 'ID' column.
I am trying to create a stored procedure (i.e. updContractNum), through which I am going to update the 'Contract_Num' column, in every row where the values on Property_Code, Customer, Cust_Category and Amnt ARE EQUAL, as we can see in the schema above.
The value of Contract_Num is a combination of varchar and auto_increment (integer). For example, the next value on 'Contract number' column will be 'CN0005' for the combination of 11032-14503-02-1450,00
I' m trying to use CURSORS for this update but I am new in using cursors and I am stuck in whole process. I atttach my code below:
CREATE PROCEDURE updContractNum
AS
--declare the variables
DECLARE @CONTRACT_NUM VARCHAR(10); -- Contract Number. The value that will be updated on the table.
DECLARE @CONTRACT INTEGER; -- Contract number, the auto increment section on contract number
DECLARE @CONTR_ROW VARCHAR(200); -- Contract row. The row elements that will be using on cursor
DECLARE CONTRACT_CURSOR CURSOR FOR -- Get the necessary fields from table
SELECT PROPERTY_CODE, CUSTOMER, CUST_CATEGORY, AMNT
FROM CONTRACTS;
OPEN CONTRACT_CURSOR -- open a cursor
FETCH NEXT FROM CONTRACT_CURSOR INTO @CONTR_ROW
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0 -- execute the update, for every row of the tabl
BEGIN
--update Contract_Num, using the format coding : contract_number = 'CN' + 0001
UPDATE CONTRACTS
SET CONTRACT_NUM = 'CN'+@CONTRACT_NUM+1
END
CLOSE CONTRACT_CURSOR
Thank you in advance!

You dont need cursor
You can simply use an update statement like this
UPDATE t
SET Contract_Num = 'CN' + RIGHT('00000' + CAST(Rnk AS varchar(5)),5)
FROM
SELECT Contract_Num,
DENSE_RANK() OVER (ORDER BY Property_Code,Customer,Cust_category,Amnt) AS Rnk
FROM table
)t

Creating auto-increment field in SharePoint List

In SharePoint, we can create the auto-incremental field by many ways, I am going to discuss two ways of doing it.
Calculated field
Item Event Receiver
1. Using Calculated field:
Using this we can accomplish it without doing any programing and it is a relatively simple way of doing it. By using “Calculated” column in SharePoint List we can create auto-increment field. We can accomplish this by creating a new column and choosing the
column type as “Calculated (calculation based on other columns)”. And in Formula field, we have to enter [ID]
In fact this will be using the values from “ID” field from SharePoint list that starts from 1.
For example, if we want to start our auto-increment column from 100, we can modify the “Formula” field of Create New column screen, we can have to enter [ID] + 99
For detailed info please follow the blog I wrote here: http://faisalrafique.wordpress.com/2011/03/19/creating-auto-increment-field-in-sharepoint-list/
2. Using Item Event Receiver:
By using this strategy, users have advantage to edit the existing values, we can also avoid it by making field read-only on feature activation. Using item event receiver, on ItemAdded event, we have to find the highest value among previously added items
and then save the incremented value to current newly created auto-incremental column.
For code of event reciever please follow the blog I wrote here:
http://faisalrafique.wordpress.com/2011/03/19/creating-auto-increment-field-in-sharepoint-list/
Happy Coding

Use Sharepoint Designer to create a Workflow for the list containing the field to increment. For my project I had an Invoice field that I wanted to start with 1001 and increment from there so I made the following workflow to do this.
In the new workflow screen in Sharepoint Designer create two actions in Step 1:
Calculate Current Item:ID plus 1000 (Output to Variable: calc)
then Set AutoIncrementNumber to Variable: calc
This is just a guide. If you just want the auto-increment to start with 1 then you can just use this step
Set AutoIncrementNumber to Current Item:ID
Also, make sure you select the correct name for your field in the Workflow action instead of AutoIncrementNumber.
Save the Workflow, close it, and then open it again in Sharepoint Designer. Check the box for "Start workflow automatically when an item is created." Save it again and then click on the Publish button to make it active on the sharepoint site. The value should
now increment for each new item created in the list.

Auto increment value

Can i use an auto increment value in ldap entry?
For example i can insert, for each ldap entry, an id that is different from the previous one.
Thanks

Can i use an auto increment value in ldap entry?
For example i can insert, for each ldap entry, an id
that is different from the previous one.
ThanksI don't think that there is a "built-in" way to do this, but I have seen several methods for doing this. One way is to use a primary/unique key from another system (i.e. an employee number from an HR database), another way is to create a GUID for each object prior to creating it in the Directory. You can muck around in the schema to set a attribute globally unique, if you want to avoid doing the lookup for an existing entry when you create a new one.

Auto increment number in BO

Hello All,
In my CAF code, I need to persist one variable and increment in every time the AS is called. To elaborate further, I have a business object (entity service) which stores the customer records. The customer number has to be auto incremented. The response of this service is the customer number which is auto generated.
Please let me know how to go about it simplistically. Do we have the concept of static variables, the same of instance of which can be accessed by various service calls?
Thanking you all in anticipation.
Regards,
Keerti

Hi Keerthi,
You can use the concept of static.
If i had understood correctly, you need to have an operation in Application Service(AS) to create a Customer BO and each time a customer BO is formed it shopuld be given a customer ny=umber in an auto increment fashion.
For this you can have the following code in your create method of the AS
try {
               StatObj ob = this.getstatObjService().create();
               i++;
               ob.setCustNumber(i);
               this.getstatObjService().update(ob);
          } catch (CAFCreateException e) {
          } catch (CAFUpdateException cue) {
          } catch (CAFPessimisticLockException cple) {
          } catch (CAFOptimisticLockException cole) {
StatObj is my BO and CustNumber is an int in the BO.
Hope it solves your problem.
Hi keerthi,
Is the problem solved.

Trigger Bad Bind Value Auto Increment

I am new to the Oracle world and am trying to make the switch from MySQL so my apologies if this seems like a silly question.
I am trying to figure out what is wrong with my trigger code. Basically , I am trying to create an auto-increment solution using some example code I found on the Internet.
I have a fairly simple table structure:
CREATE TABLE "CIMS"."computerSoftware"
( "computerSoftware_id" NUMBER(11,0),
"cid" NUMBER(11,0) DEFAULT 0 NOT NULL ENABLE,
"publisher" VARCHAR2(100 CHAR) DEFAULT NULL,
"name" VARCHAR2(100 CHAR) DEFAULT NULL,
"version" VARCHAR2(100 CHAR) DEFAULT NULL,
"serialNumber" VARCHAR2(100 CHAR) DEFAULT NULL,
"unlimited" NUMBER(4,0) DEFAULT 0,
"copies" NUMBER(9,0) DEFAULT 1 NOT NULL ENABLE,
"master" NUMBER(4,0) DEFAULT 0,
PRIMARY KEY ("computerSoftware_id")
My Trigger looks like this:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER "CIMS"."TR_CompSoftware_ID"
BEFORE INSERT ON CIMS."computerSoftware"
REFERENCING OLD AS OLD NEW AS NEW
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
IF (:new.computerSoftware_id IS NULL) then
SELECT S_CompSoftware_ID.NEXTVAL
INTO :new.computerSoftware_id
FROM dual;
end IF;
END;
And finally, here is my sequence:
CREATE SEQUENCE "CIMS"."S_CompSoftware_ID" MINVALUE 1
MAXVALUE 999999999999999999999999999 INCREMENT BY 1 START WITH 1 CACHE 10 NOORDER NOCYCLE
When I try to save the trigger I receive the following error:
PLS-00049: bad bind variable 'NEW.COMPUTERSOFTWARE_ID'
Any help is much appreciated!

Auto-increment receipt number?

Hi,
I'm trying to increment a single number, and not having much luck. Here's what I'm doing:
My tennis club needs to print about three hundred receipts. I've designed a master page in Indesign CS4. On that master page, in landscape format, I have eight identical receipts arranged in a 2 x 4 arrangement (so as to be able to print eight receipts on one page).
On each receipt, I have a single "receipt number" which I'd like to automatically increment on each receipt: "0000001", "0000002", "0000003", etc. So, ideally, I'd be able to simply set up the auto-increment, apply the master page to about 30 pages or so, and the last receipt on the last page would be numbered at "0000300".
However, I'm not entirely sure how to do this. Do I use a text variable of some sort? I tried going to that, but nothing I tried worked.
Thanks!

This is discussed fairly regularly. Solutions range from creating a one-receipt-per-page document in which you use an automatic page number, and then place that file inito a new N-up layout, to Data Merge, to simply placing a number list saved as a text file.
I've used both of the last two and find them pretty easy. I'm fond of the Data Merge approach because it allows me to very easily arrange the numbers on the sheets so they are printed in stacks and don't need to be sorted after cutting. You can do that in a palin text file, too, but I find it less intuitive.
For doing that with Data Merge I set up a spread sheet with X columns and Y rows. X is the number of tickets or receipts on a single page, Y is the number of sheets required to print all the numbers. I start by filling the first three cells in the first column reading down in consecutive order, then use auto fill to complete the column. Repeat for the next two columns, then you can use auto-fill to complete all the rows. Add a new row at the top for field names for Data Merge and export as comma separated text.
Put the placeholders for all the receipts on the page and do a single-record-per-page merge.

How to use auto-increment and search option for MS Access DB

Dear All,
I have configured our invoice in Adobe Livecycle and connected it to MS Acess 2007 as per http://forms.stefcameron.com/2006/09/18/connecting-a-form-to-a-database/.
All is working fine, I can insert, retrieve data from DB to invoice and vice versa.
Now I want few things to be implemented on our invoice.
When ever I open our invoice, it populate the first entry from DB, Is it possible to populate the last entry ?
Auto increment invoice number from MS Access DB every time we open our invoice after save.
How to implement search option from DB for invoice number ?
Please let me know if someone can provide me help on my scenario, so that I can share more stuff related to invoice and DB.
Look forward to hearing soon from experts and other team members.
Thanks & Regards

As far as I know there is not any auto increment data type in Oracle. Instead of this you should create a sequence and get the next value of the sequence while creating a row in your table.
CREATE SEQUENCE Test_Sequence ;
CREATE TABLE Test_Table ( Id NUMBER , Foo VARCHAR2(4) ) ;
ALTER TABLE Test_Table ADD CONSTRAINT Test_Table_PK_Id PRIMARY KEY ( Id ) ;
INSERT INTO Test_Table ( Id , Information ) VALUES ( Test_Sequence.NEXTVAL , 'FOO' ) ;

Trying to create cmp correctly(auto-increment);error while running

I am using the latest versions of Jboss(4.0.5.GA) and Lomboz(R-3.2-200610201336) along with SQL Server 2005 and Microsoft's SQL Server 2005 JDBC driver.
Lomboz used xdoclet to create the java files based on the SQL table but it did not put anything in the DoctorBean.java file telling it that the primary key was auto-incremented.
Using the JSP files, I can retreive data out of the database fine so I know the connection and drivers are set up properly.
Here is the error:

Nevermind.. no one bothered to inform the developer that the path to the collection AND the path to the directory that the collection is for are different on this other server.
Fixed.

Auto increment with collection is not working

I am using KODO 3.0 with MYSQL 4.0.16. I have created two JDO object as
follows
BankAccount contains a collection of Contacts object. My metadata looks
like this
<class name="BankAccount">
<field name="contacts">
<collection element-type="Contacts"/>
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="element-dependent"
value="true"/>
</field>
</class>
<class name="Contacts" objectid-class="Contacts$contactId">
<field name="contactId" primary-key="true">
<extension vendor-name="kodo" key="jdbc-auto-increment"
value="true"/>
</field>
</class>
There is no problem in the persisting of BankAccount object and adding
Contacts to it, but Contacts collation is not retrieved along with parent
object. In the database join table, the contact Id value it is always set
to null.
Things are working well with out contact id in Contacts.
Can anyone help?
Regards,
dharmi

Set the following property:
kodo.jdbc.AutoIncrementConstraints: true
Described here:
http://www.solarmetric.com/Software/Documentation/latest/docs/ref_guide_pc_oid.html#ref_guide_pc_oid_pkgen_autoinc

Auto increment variable (global)
