Re: [GENERAL] sequence

Another option is to set the default value of the field to the nextval, 
such as for mytable primary key field 
nextval(('public.users_user_id_seq'::text)::regclass).  Then, when you 
write your SQL
INSERT INTO mytable VALUES(default).  I do it this way and find it a 
little cleaner.  If you want to access the users_user_id_seq value 
within the same transaction, then after the insert into mytable you can 
use currval.
