> Hi all, using OpenJPA 2.0.0 with Postgresql 8.4 JDBC4
> I want to create the schema with the following property:
> <property name="openjpa.jdbc.SynchronizeMappings"
> value="buildSchema(SchemaAction='drop,add')"/>
> The entity is defined as follows:
> @Entity
> @Table(name = "obj_item")
> @Inheritance(strategy = InheritanceType.JOINED)
> @SequenceGenerator(name = "obj_item_id_seq", sequenceName =
> "obj_item_id_seq", allocationSize = 1)
> class ObjectItem ...
> it seems that the sequence will not be dropped - so I get the
> following exception:
> org.apache.openjpa.persistence.PersistenceException: ERROR: relation
> "obj_item_id_seq" already exists {stmnt 1834517285 CREATE SEQUENCE
> obj_item_id_seq START WITH 1} [code=0, state=42P07]
>        at 
> org.apache.openjpa.jdbc.meta.MappingTool.record(MappingTool.java:556)...
> </Christopher Schmidt>

> As it turns out, I don't think this problem is the same as OPENJPA-1259.  
> There is special code in the PostgresDictionary that treats sequences 
> suffixed with "_SEQ" as system managed sequences.  The comment in 
> PostgresDictionary.isSystemSequence reads:
>         // filter out generated sequences used for bigserial cols, which are
>         // of the form <table>_<col>_seq
> This explains why the same code worked for me on DB2.  Are you able to modify 
> the sequence name?  (ex. sequenceName = "seq_obj_item_id")  If not, please 
> file a new JIRA.   It may/should be possible to make the code a bit smarter 
> by actually verifying _seq suffixed sequences are for a bigserial column[1] 
> instead of just making the assumption.

> I have a simple testcase that demonstrates the problem and only spent a very 
> brief amount of time looking into a fix.  Ideally, OpenJPA should be able to 
> identify user created vs. system created sequences with suffix "_seq" and 
> behave appropriately.
