Hi, Is it possible to fetch the values of an autoincrement field without flushing the object to the DB?
(In postgres, I obviously can manually fetch nextval of the automatically generated sequence, but I lose the portability that way ...) Why? Because I need the id to generate data that will be filled into some (non- null) columns of the table row. So I can't flush since I'll get an IntegrityError about non-null columns, and I can't fill those columns without knowing the id that's going to be assigned. (Yes, I can use dummy values, then flush(), and then update the row before committing. But that's not exactly elegant...) cheers -- vbi -- Fnord.
