Knut Anders Hatlen commented on DERBY-5151:
-------------------------------------------
The DB2 docs in above URL say that the minimum value for CACHE integer-constant
is 2, so NO CACHE is not just syntactic sugar for that database. Not sure what
Oracle does. PostgreSQL allows CACHE 1.
> Sequence without cache

> Key: DERBY-5151
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-5151
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: SQL
> Reporter: Mark Holster
> Attachments: sequence-no-cache.patch
>
>
> Currently, a sequence in Derby always uses a pre allocating cache. I'm
> working on an usecase which requires a number to increase with a fixed value.
> The usecase fails after a restart because of the pre allocating cache.
> I've created a patch that adds the options CACHE | NO CACHE to the create
> sequence statement. When no cache is provided, the pre allocating cache size
> will be set to 1, which results in a "no cache sequence".
> I've followed the CYCLE | NO CYCLE code as much as possible. Tested it in my
> own app and it seems to work fine.
