I asked this question elsewhere, but didn't get an answer. So:
An entity bean's ejbCreate(...) method MUST return the primary key. That is
not a problem, if I specify the primary key myself and pass it to the
create(...) method.
But I want to let the database assign the primary key by creating a table
with an AUTOINCREMENT default for the primary key column, like in this
example using Cloudscape (part of SUN's J2EE v1.3):
create table myTable(
id INT DEFAULT AUTOINCREMENT CONSTRAINT pk_id PRIMARY KEY,
someString VARCHAR(6),
etc.
);
Then I can use INSERT like this:
INSERT INTO mytable ( someString ) VALUES ( 'Hello' );
The database then assigns a unique value to the id column of that new
record.
If I do this in the ejbCreate(...) method of my bean my problem is: How do
I know that value in order to return it? Is that possible?
Thanks
