Обсуждение: Support of getting generated keys in driver version 8.4devel
Hello!
This is my environment:
Driver version: PostgreSQL 8.4devel JDBC3 (build 700)
PostgreSQL version: 8.3.4
I am looking for getting generated keys support in the driver. The
changelog says it has basic generated keys support. However,
DatabaseMetaData.supportsGetGeneratedKeys() returns false and when I
execute:
con.prepareStatement("insert into tab0 values(default, 444)", new
String[] {"id"});
I am receiving:
Caused by: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: Returning autogenerated
keys is not supported.
at org.postgresql.jdbc3.AbstractJdbc3Connection.prepareStatement
(AbstractJdbc3Connection.java:448)
Am I missing something? If not, is the generated keys support going to
be implemented in a future build of 8.4devel?
Happy New Year,
Milosz

I intentionally left supportsGetGeneratedKeys false because we don't
support returning generated keys by column indexes. Without knowing how
used that method is, I'm not sure if this is more or less helpful. I'm
open to input if people think we should change it to true.

This was an oversight on my part. I added support for the Statement
methods, but somehow not for PreparedStatement methods. Shouldn't be too
tough to add, let me take a look and get back to you in a day or two.

AFAIK it is still not implemented however, you may try to use RETURNS
clause in INSERT statement.
This works perfectly good.

Kris, my picture is that I work with Apache OpenJPA - an object- relational mapper. OpenJPA checks whether generated keys are supported by calling DatabaseMetaData.supportsGetGeneratedKeys(). If true, the generated keys are retrieved from PreparedStatement by giving column names. If false, a second query is executed to get the value of sequence associated with serial column. So, in the OpenJPA context, supportsGetGeneratedKeys returning true would be more helpful, but I can also imagine a case where it would break things. Greetings, Milosz

I have also tried this and it works. However, I am more interested in driver support for generated keys because modifying INSERT statements is not a piece of cake in my case. Cheers, Miłosz

I've also flipped supportsGetGeneratedKeys to true as I believe that will be more helpful to more users. http://ejurka.com/pgsql/jars/genkey/ Kris Jurka

I have done a few tests and it works. supportsGetGeneratedKeys returns true and I was able to successfully insert rows and get generated keys by using column names. Best Regards, Milosz
