    Component: SQL

> Support for sequences

>          Key: DERBY-712
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-712
>      Project: Derby
>         Type: New Feature
>   Components: SQL
>  Environment: feature request 
>     Reporter: Tony Dahbura

>
> Would like to see support added for sequences.  This would permit a select 
> against the sequence to always obtain a ever increasing/decreasing value.  
> The identity column works fine but there are times for applications where the 
> application needs to obtain the sequence number and use it prior to the 
> database write.  Subsequent calls to the table/column would result in a new 
> number on each call.
> SQL such as the following:
> SELECT NEXT VALUE FOR sequence_name FROM sometable ; would result in a next 
> value.
