Sequence object

Question

Hi,
I can call Sequence object in application module like this way?
import oracle.jbo.server.SequenceImpl;
String SEQUENCE = "ACCOUNT_SEQ";
//Get the Sequence object
SequenceImpl accSeq = new SequenceImpl(SEQUENCE, getDBTransaction());
//Get the Sequence value
Number accValue = accSeq.getSequenceNumber();
But this didnot work in jsp page? is there a way i can get sequence value in jsp page since I do not want to use trigger by using DBSequence data type?
thanks

ok, here is another way to do it.
In the Java code for your entity look for the create method for your record and add a piece of code like this:
protected void create(AttributeList attributeList)
super.create(attributeList);
//make sure to change the name of the sequance in this line
SequenceImpl s = new SequenceImpl("JCAB_COMPANIES_S", getDBTransaction());
Long next = (Long)s.getData();
//this line will need to use the set method for your primary key column
this.setCompanyId(new Number(next.intValue()));
}
