Hello
sorry if this is old hat...
i am trying to figure out a way to assign primary keys to my database
tables.
I have previously used ints with auto_increment but i am wondering what
happens when you reach the highest number possible for an int... is
there some way of 'reclaiming' primary keys for the system when an entry
in a table is removed?
Maybe some sort of system that provides ints from a pool, reclaiming
them when entries in tables are removed?
cheers
matthew
