Contradiction: SEQUENCE and AUTO_INCREMENT

Most recommendations tell: You have to use SEQUENCE instead of an auto_increment column. In contradiction to this I found the following AUTO INCREMENT feature in Oracle® Database Lite SQL Reference 10g (10.2.0):
4.3.18 CREATE TABLE
auto increment Set the column to auto increment column... The value of an auto increment column is auto incremented and inserted, so that the user does not have to provide the value...
[Oracle Lite 10g Documentation|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19188_01/doc/B15917/sqcmd.htm#sthref478]
What now? Can someone explain this?
* In which Oracle versions is auto increment available, in which not?
* Is "auto increment" (with space inside) the correct spelling, indeed?
* If "auto increment" is available, should one better use this feature or SEQUENCE?
I know that SEQUENCE doesn't concern to a specific table, but to the database itself.
Thank you for answer! Juergen
PS. I myself don't use Oracle DB, but Firebird. I'm an author of a German Wikibook "Introduction to SQL" and want to describe correct context.

1. Is it a Database Lite feature. ( It's forum is @ Database Mobile Server (inc. legacy Database Lite) )
In Oracle RDBMS you'll need a sequence.
2. Seems correctly spelled to me.
3. use an Oracle Sequence.
You will rather want to check the RDBMS documentation as well:

Greetings, I am working in Final Cut Pro 7. In the timeline some clips show as offline. I tried going to sequence and reconnecting to media but it does not work. I can still see the video in the timeline and work with it. It just has the red box.

If the clips are not actually missing, you could try to refresh the timeline by using cmd-0 and then going to the timeline options tab. Then select name only where it says "thumbnail display". Press ok to accept the change, then repeat the process to add thumbnails back to your timeline.

What is the correct way to use Version Information from the sequence and from the deployment tool

I seem to be missing something in how the various version numbers are supposed to be used. My end goal is to log and possibly display in the UI the version of the sequence and which installer version was used to inspect a UUT. I have gotten most of the way there using:
How Can I Programmatically Query the Sequence File Version of My TestStand Sequence?
and logging this into the report with a function which contains:
Parameters.UUT.AdditionalData.SetValString("Test Version",1,RunState.SequenceFile.Data.Version),
Parameters.UUT.AdditionalData.SetFlags("",0,PropFlags_IncludeInReport)
The "Deployment Version" in the TestStand Deployment Utility auto incrementing the 3rd position of a version number while the sequence auto increment is working on the 4th.
My first question is are these 2 version numbers in anyway supposed to be related to each other? As it seems to me you would want those 2 reversed, I can make several installers based on sequence version X, making changes to what supporting files are also installed.
If they are not related as I suspect that they are not. How do I programatically grabed the installer version and also log that into the result report?
is there an option to perform a custom deployment build step to log the deployment version before it builds and then reference that log at runtime of the test?

Hi,
The sequence file version and deployment versions are not related.
You can build the installer with whatever version you want using the command line :

Project renames sequence and all clips in the sequence when a clip is added

My project is renaming my sequences and the clips in those sequences whenever I add a clip. For example, I have a sequence called "dance section 2", which contains 20 some-odd clips with various names. When I add a clip named "drop from above", the name of the sequence is changed to "drop from above", and the name of every other clip in the sequence is also changed to "drop from above" (video, audio, stills, everything). When I add a clip named "spins", all the names are changed to "spins".
The name of the sequence is changed in both the timeline and the browser, but the names of the other clips are changed only in the timeline. In the browser, they keep their old names. The exception to this is the last clip added before the name changer. For example, if I add "drop from above" to the sequence, and then add "spins", the clip named "drop from above" is renamed "spins" in the browser as well as in the timeline, but the other clips are renamed only in the timeline.
The clips in the sequence also keep their original content - so the sequence looks the same as it did before, but all the names of the clips are changed.
This is only happening in one project. All of my other projects are working fine.
I've tried restarting and deleting preferences. I've also looked at the autosave vault for the project. The backup projects saved after a certain time all behave the same way, and the projects before that time all behave normally. I can't imagine what would have caused this, though, since I've been working on this project all day and nothing's happened to my computer or hard drive or anything.
Also, there are no freeze frames at the beginnings of my sequences (I read another thread with a somewhat similar issue and getting rid of freeze frames seemed to help that person).
I'm in FCP 7.0 on a Macbook Pro.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Welcome to the discussions...
I've had this happen. My guess is that it's related to round-tripping to/from Color, but I can't be sure. IMHO, the sequence is corrupted. I just dealt with it for a while, then rebuilt it by making changes from an earlier version.
Sorry I don't have a better solution, but at least you know you're not alone.

Creation of sequence and trigger for each table!!!!!!!1

Hi
I am new to trigger and Sequence field. In one of my database we have many tables with fields for specifing ID numbers. Iam planning to insert the ID field with help of a Sequence and trigger...that trigger fires by adding the sequence value from the dual table. Now the point is here we r having around *60* table with ID field. And i am planning use the above process for each table by creating sequences and trigger for each table.
Will this affects the performance of database.
Is there any other option other than the above process, I mean other than creating sequences and trigger for each table.
PLzz help to resolve this issuee......

I have Final cut Pro HD sequence and I need to burn this on a DVD

I have Final cut Pro HD sequence and I need to burn this on a DVD, my sequence lasts 1 hr and 33 minutes. What are my options? Is it better to export as a Quick Time movie or using the compressor? I'm new to the compressor just learning, please help.

Select your sequence in the browser window, go to the File menu and choose Export Using Compressor.
When compressor opens, choose the DVD best quality settings, 120 minutes.
For audio and video both, choose both the m2v video and the AC3 audio. (Dolby Professional)
Choose a destination for your files, and hit submit.
When it's finished, import these files into your DVD SP project, and make your DVD.
Be sure to choose the 16:9 anamorphic settings.

Help on Sequence and Procedure

Hi all,
I have a situation like this
I have 10 different tables like a,b,c,d,e,f
But i have same columns in all tables
like
id
Created_date,
Current_user,
updated_by,
updated_date
I created a sequence and triggers on a table like below
CREATE SEQUENCE x_SEQUENCE START WITH
150001 INCREMENT BY 1 MAXVALUE 999999
CYCLE;
CREATE TRIGGER xi_trigger
BEFORE INSERT ON x_table FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
SELECT x_SEQUENCE.NextVal,USER,SYSDATE INTO :NEW.CTUT_ID,
:NEW.CURRT_USER_ID,:NEW.CREATED_DATE FROM DUAL;
:NEW.CREATED_BY := :NEW.CTUT_ID;
END;
CREATE TRIGGER xU_trigger
BEFORE UPDATE ON x_table FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
SELECT USER,SYSDATE INTO :NEW.CURRT_USER_ID,:NEW.UPDATED_DATE FROM DUAL;
:NEW.UPDATED_BY := :NEW.CTUT_ID;
END;
everything is working fine for one table
1) Can anybody help me how to create a procedure with Trigger code
so that i can call that procedure in all tables
like
CREATE TRIGGER xi_trigger
BEFORE INSERT ON x_table FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
x_procedure;
end;
2) When sequence is completed i mean when it reach max value how to display message
Thanks for your help

Here's one way of doing it:
CREATE PROCEDURE audit_action
( pn_id OUT NUMBER
    , pv_by OUT VARCHAR2
    , pd_on OUT DATE )
IS
   ln_seq NUMBER;
   ld_on DATE;
   lv_by VARCHAR2(30);
   x_seq exception;
   pragma exception_init(x_seq, -8004);
BEGIN
   SELECT my_seq.NEXTVAL, USER, SYSDATE
   INTO   ln_seq, lv_by, ld_on
   FROM   dual;
   pn_id := ln_seq;
   pv_by := lv_by;
   pd_on := ld_on;
EXCEPTION
   WHEN x_seq
   THEN
      RAISE_APPLICATION_ERROR(-8004, 'MY_SEQ has run out of numbers!');
END audit_action;
/and here's how you call it:
CREATE TRIGGER xi_trigger
BEFORE INSERT ON x_table FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
    audit_action (:NEW.ctut_id, :NEW.currt_user, :NEW.created_date);
END xi_trigger; Warning: I have not run this code (can't be bothered with the set-up) but it is logically correct, so it should work with (at worst) minor syntactical tweaking.
Cheers, APC
P.S. CURRENT_USER is a misleading column name, it ought to be called CREATED_BY.
P.P.S. It is very bad practice to have sequences run out at all. Unless you have a very good reason I strongly urge you not to set MAXVALUE when you create your sequences.

Sequence and clip name keeps changing... Why ? Solutions ?

The sequence and clip name on a particular project keeps changing. It usually takes the name of of an audio file. Deleting the preferences, opening the timeline in a new project, making it offline and reconnecting it again, et. all doesn't help ? What is causing this ? HELP
Mac Pro Quad core
Memory 8GB
Storage - XSAN
FCP version 7.0
OS X version 10.5.8
Quicktime 10 & 7.66 both installed
Anyone has a solution for this....
Jp

I made the sequence off line and save it as a new project. Then deleted the preferences and opened the project..... reconnected the media. Most of the clips showed the correct clip name and the sequence name also didn't change. But a few audio tracks still had the old problem....
Thanks for the reply.... haven't updated yet..

How to move a sequence, and only the media in the sequence?

I need to move a 30 min. sequence, and associated media, to work on a different, remote editing system.
I'd like to just get the media in the sequence with maybe 5 sec. handles. Every test I've run through Media Manager has copied each, complete, original media clip (not just the portion used) - many of which are over 20 minutes long - despite having only used a small portion of each clip. (So in the media manager Summary section the bar graph of "original" amount of space used, is always the same as the "modified"). In the past I think this was called "Bounce"...
2. If I accomplish this, can I email the sequence data only, and have it link up in the original editing system, or will the media file names be so unique that the original system won't recognize them and link up.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi -
Question 1: The obvious first question is - did you select Delete unused media from selected items?
!http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/MediaManagerDeleteUnused.jpg!
If you did, does your media have a Reel Name associated with it?
2) You can email the project sequence information (you will want to zip it first before sending), Then you can relink to the media as long as the media has the same names. If will be a matter of re-directing the sequence to the new directory location of the media - which you will do through the Reconnect dialog box.
But you might want to just buy an external hard disk drive, copy the media and project there and FedEx the whole thing to your collaborator.

Working in FCP6, open a project, sequence not showing ANY fonts from motion master templates. Start new sequence and they appear fine. Whats up with it?

So here's what I've got: one of the first gen Intel Macbooks with 2gb RAM, running a fresh install of FCS2, fully updated. I pulled out my external with my project on it (saved in the same version), that I keep my demo reel updated on. I've always used the motion text master template files to label each clip and for some reason, this round the text isn't appearing. Let me be clear just how weird this is: the template file will show up in the viewer, but any file set in this sequence will be blank. If there is any graphics to the file, IT shows up, but not the text. I opened up a new sequence and and first added a new master file to it, and it showed up on that sequence. I then went to the old sequence and copy/pasted the clips in it to the new sequence and the text shows up as well. What is up with the original sequence that is causing this issue??? Any thoughts? (unfortunately, my copy of Final Cut is a "Not for Resale" (NFR) so I can't call in for support.
Thanks in advance!!!

Hi Miro,
I was just experiencing a similar problem today. In my situation I was getting the diagonal lines and the new project wasn't actually being trimmed, it was the same size as the original with all of the media from the original project .
It turns out that even though I was selecting 3 specific sequences out of 20 the Project Manager was ignoring that selection, it brought over those 3 sequences but all of the media from the other sequences. I think this is what was creating the problem.
The trim unused media box (or whatever the check box says) was greyed out.
My solution was to create a new clean project and import the 3 sequences I wanted to create a new trimmed project from.
Then using the Project Manager everything worked as expected, the project was trimmed down and there were no diagonal lines. I unchecked the "rename media" option, not sure if that was necessary part of the solution.
This seems like a bug to me, we shouldn't have to create a new project, it's an extra unwanted step and clutter on our systems.
Hope that helps!
I'm on Mac 10.8.5 and Premiere 7.0.1, eagerly awaiting to update once the bug fixes to the bug fixes are fixed.

What is a nested sequence and how do you create it?

If you nest a sequence of 5 clips does it become one clip? So how do you make one? I understand that to nest a sequence you highlight the clips you want in the browser and drag them into the viewer. The viewer only shows one of the clips though and the rest are stacked in the recently viewed files. So then what? Am I even doing any of this right?
Sputnik

A nested sequence is a sequence that contains other sequences. It's a way of organizing your work in FCE as your projects become more complex and/or your creative needs necessitate the capabilities nested sequences provide. Nested sequences are very useful for organizing complex projects, to reduce the amount of rendering needed when you are working with effects, and to control the order in which effects are rendered in your project.
Think of it this way - you capture clips from your camera. In FCE you create a sequence and you add your clips to it and then go about doing your editing, adding effects & filters, etc. Your sequence will be listed in the Browser just the same as your captured clips.
If you then create a 2nd sequence, you can put your entire first sequence into it just the same as adding a clip to it (by dragging it from the Browser into your new sequence), and then within the 2nd sequence you can treat the nested sequence as if it were a single clip - set in/out points, add effects & filters, etc.

Color correction problem between original sequence and multicam sequence... Please help

I used three camcorders to record a youth dance recital. I created an orginal sequence for the three camcorders and another sequence using the multicam feature to edit the dances. After I finished editing, I went back to the original sequence to make some color correction and brightness adjustments using the Fast Color Correction controls. After that, I sent everything to Encore to create a DVD. When I watched the DVD, I noticed some of my color correction settings were still off, so I went back to the orginal sequence to make some changes. Unfortunately, the multicam sequence would not read the new settings. After a few unsuccessful attempts to get the clip from the multicam sequence to read the clip from the original sequence, I decided to start over by clearing the Fast Color Correction controls from the clip. The multicam sequence then adjusted back matching the original sequence. However, when I started a new Fast Color Correction control in the original sequence, the multicam sequence would not take the new settings. How to I get the mulitcam sequence to read the orginal sequence?

Thank Jim for replying:
I am stumped on this one. I did a few radical tweeks and it did not take. For example, I made one clip in the original sequence go completely dark. However, the clip in the mulicam sequence did not change.
I even deleted the render files and the work area render files and started over with making changes. Nothing. Any change I make on the original sequence will no longer adjust in the multicam sequence.
Any last words of advice before I delete the entire multicam sequence and start over? Thanks.

Database Adapter: Insert, relationships, sequences and problems of course

Hello Everyone!!
I'm trying to do an insert in an Oracle Express Database with a database adapter. I'm trying to do the insert in two tables: SOLICITUDES with a column called NUMSOLICITUD that is also the primary key of the table and it's populated from its own sequence and the other table whose name is DOCJUST with a field NUMSOL. SOLICITUDES has a 1:M relationship with DOCJUST and the fields used in this relationship are NUMSOLICITUD and NUMSOL. The problem is that when the adapter do the insert, the first insert made on SOLICITUDES is correct, but when it tries to insert in the DOCJUST table, when it's supposed to insert in NUMSOL the same value inserted in NUMSOLICITUDES instead of that, a NULL value is inserted in NUMSOL so the process fails. Is it because the NUMSOLICITUDES column is populated from a sequence? How can I resolve that?
Thanks!!

Hi,
OK, I found the following article: http://soa-bpel-esb.blogspot.com/2010/04/understanding-catch-and-catchall.html
Using the info from that article I have created a test flow, which contains the same insert database adapter as the production flow. I have placed the Invoke within its own scope and attached a "CatchAll" block to this scope. To this block I have added a "empty" step (do nothing).
In my tests, I see the desired results i.e. the second time I initiate the flow with the same data, the CatchAll block executes, which does nothing, and processing continues after the scope.
So far so good - my query is how would I catch the specific error of unique index violation rather than general catchall?
As before, and assistance/comments greatly appreciated.
