Hi,
I'd like to use an identity-column And I am not quite sure how to
receive the used number, if I used default.
Actually I need the particular identity-value for the entries of other
tables, since they are supposed to reference it.
Am I forced to give those identities for my own like with a
sequence-number, or can I somwhow get it by some "magic" statement?
--------------------------------
here my particular case:
CREATE TABLE "APP"."INPUTFILES"
(
INPUTFILE_ID int generated always as
identity
,"NAME" VARCHAR(512) NOT NULL
,"TMPST_IN" TIMESTAMP NOT NULL
DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
);
CREATE TABLE "APP"."OUTPUTFILES"
(
OUTPUTFILE_ID int generated always as
identity
,INPUTFILE_ID int
,"NAME" VARCHAR(512) NOT NULL
,"TMPST_IN" TIMESTAMP NOT NULL
DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
);
ALTER TABLE "APP"."INPUTFILES" ADD CONSTRAINT "PK_INPUTFILE_ID" PRIMARY
KEY ("INPUTFILE_ID");
ALTER TABLE "APP"."OUTPUTFILES" ADD CONSTRAINT "PK_OUTPUTFILE_ID"
PRIMARY KEY ("OUTPUTFILE_ID");
ALTER TABLE "APP"."OUTPUTFILES" ADD CONSTRAINT "FK_INPUTFILE_ID" FOREIGN
KEY ("INPUTFILE_ID") REFERENCES "APP"."INPUTFILES" ("INPUTFILE_ID") ON
DELETE CASCADE ON UPDATE RESTRICT;
---------------
Am I right that I need to use generated by default as identity instead
of int generated always as identity
And that there is no way to get the identity value if generated by
derby?
