Hi All, The database tables(MySql 4) for the application I am currently developing are currently being populated via non OJB means i.e. not using the ojb to generate primary key id's. (basically a standalone application/sql client). The application uses OJB to query the DB.
This approach is currently more time/workload efficient however we *will* be porting this functionality over to the web-app which will then use OJB as the peristence mechanism. My question/s are : 1) will OJB's Sequence manager/internal tables be able to cope with the fact that there are externally generated id's in some/all of the tables and be able to integrate smoothly. 2) is it possible for the standalone application to use the ojb_seq and ohb_hl_seq directly. Would that make my life easier? I am assuming it is not much more complicated than getting the last value and adding n to it. Please correct me if I'm wrong 3) has anybody used this approach (i am aware that it is not ideal but it is most convenient for now) many thanks for your time Jin
