Primary Key Generation Using Oracle's Sequence

SQLPrimaryKeys returns a list of column names that comprise the primary key for a table. The information is returned in an SQL result set. This result set can be retrieved by using the same functions that process a result set that is generated by a query. How to create primary key by using two columns in SQL Server. Viewed 4k times 1. I need to create table with two columns. These columns have to be created with primary key. For example Column 1 name ID and column 2 name Name. ID is auto incremented. When data is inserted into the table, all names has to be different.

Oracle provides the sequence utility to automatically generate unique primary keys. To use this utility to auto-generate primary keys for a CMP entity bean, you must create a sequence table and use the @AutomaticKeyGeneration annotation to point to this table.

In your Oracle database, you must create a sequence table that will create the primary keys, as shown in the following example:

This creates a sequences of primary key values, starting with 1, followed by 2, 3, and so forth. The sequence table in the example uses the default increment 1, but you can change this by specifying the increment keyword, such as increment by 3. When you do the latter, you must specify the exact same value in the cacheSize attribute of the @AutomaticKeyGeneration annotation:

Generated columns¶ It is possible to define columns whose value is computed by applying a generation expression in the context of the current row. The generation expression can reference the values of other columns. Generated columns are defined by providing a generation expression.
ADD COLUMN ¶ Can be used to add an additional column to a table. While columns can be added at any time, adding a new generated column is only possible if the table is empty. In addition, adding a base column with Default clause is not supported.

If you have specified automatic table creation in the CMP bean's project settings, the sequence table will be created automatically when the entity bean is deployed. For more information, see @JarSettings Annotation. For more information on the definition of a CMP entity bean, see below.

Primary Key Generation Using SQL Server's IDENTITY

In SQL Server you can use the IDENTITY keyword to indicate that a primary-key needs to be auto-generated. The following example shows a common scenario where the first primary key value is 1, and the increment is 1:

In the CMP entity bean definition you need to specify SQLServer(2000) as the type of automatic key generator you are using. You can also provide a cache size:

Primary Key Generation Using a Named Sequence Table

A named sequence table is similar to the Oracle sequence functionality in that a dedicated table is used to generate primary keys. However, the named sequence table approach is vendor-neutral. To auto-generate primary keys this way, create a named sequence table using the two SQL statements shown in the example:

In the CMP entity bean definition you need to specify the named sequence table as the type of automatic key generator you are using. You can also provide a cache size:

Note. When you specify a cacheSize value for a named sequence table, a series of unique values are reserved for entity bean creation. When a new cache is necessary, a second series of unique values is reserved, under the assumption that the first series of unique values was entirely used. This guarantees that primary key values are always unique, although it leaves open the possibility that primary key values are not necessarily sequential. For instance, when the first series of values is 10...20, the second series of values is 21-30, even if not all values in the first series were actually used to create entity beans.

Defining the CMP Entity Bean

When defining a CMP entity bean that uses one of the primary key generators, you use the the @AutomaticKeyGeneration annotation to point to the name of the primary key generator table to obtain primary keys. Also, you must define a primary key field of type Integer or Long to set and get the auto-generated primary key. However, the ejbCreate method does not take a primary key value as an argument. Instead the EJB container adds the correct primary key to the entity bean record.

The following example shows what the entity bean might look like. Notice that the bean uses the named sequence option described above, and that ejbCreate method does not take a primary key:
