Re: [jBoss-User] SQLServer getting autoincrement pk

[Bill Pfeiffer]

Peter,   Thanks for the code.  I will probably make good use of what you sent me.  What I was originially looking for was some way to get the pk using CMP with my enitity.  If BMP is the way to go here, that is what I will do, but I wanted to make sure I'm not missing something the I could do with CMP in the ejbPostCreate.    Thanks again,   Bill Pfeiffer ----- Original Message ----- From: Peter Henderson To: jBoss Sent: Friday, November 03, 2000 9:20 AM Subject: Re: [jBoss-User] SQLServer getting autoincrement pk Im using MS SQL server and this is how i do it...   The contacts table has an auto inc id field.   Alter Procedure CreateNewContact  (   @type int,   @info varchar(50),   @treadID int  ) As Insert into Contacts (Type,Info,ThreadID) VALUES(@type, @info, @treadID) return @@Identity   And my entity bean       public ContactPK ejbCreate( int type, String info, int threadID )  throws CreateException, RemoteException {         System.out.println( "IN Contact.ejbCreate(int, string, int)" );           this.db_data.type = type;         this.db_data.info = info;         this.db_data.threadID = threadID;         this.db_data.props = new Properties();           Throwable rethrow = null;         int contactID = 0;         Connection conn = null;         CallableStatement ps = null;         try {             conn = getDBConnection();             ps = conn.prepareCall("{?=call CreateNewContact( ?,?,? ) }");             ps.registerOutParameter( 1, java.sql.Types.INTEGER );             ps.setInt(2, type); //            ps.setString(3, info);             ps.setObject(3, info, java.sql.Types.VARCHAR); // CHECK Bug Id  4274977 at java.sun.com, SetString() padds the db field even when its varchar!!!              ps.setInt(4, threadID);             ps.execute();               this.db_data.id = ps.getInt(1);             System.out.println("new contact id from db is"  + db_data.id );           } catch ( Exception e ) {             System.out.println("Error executing sql " + e);             rethrow = e;         } finally {               if ( ps != null ) {                 try { ps.close(); } catch(Exception e) {}                 ps = null;             }               if ( conn != null ) {                 try { conn.close(); } catch(Exception e) {}                 conn = null;             }               if ( rethrow != null ) {                 throw new CreateException( "Failed to create contact, " + rethrow.toString() );             }         }           return new ContactPK( this.db_data.id );     }   I hope this helps.   Peter Henderson.   ----- Original Message ----- From: Jay Walters To: 'jBoss' Sent: Friday, November 03, 2000 6:48 AM Subject: RE: [jBoss-User] SQLServer getting autoincrement pk should be able to do it with a stored procedure, I'm not sure of the specific syntax to access the last key generated - -----Original Message----- From: Bill Pfeiffer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, November 03, 2000 5:56 AM To: jBoss-user Subject: [jBoss-User] SQLServer getting autoincrement pk Does anyone know of a strategy for retrieving an  auto-generated pk from sql server autoincrement pk when using entity beans?  Ideally I would like the pk returned from the create to contain the newly generated pk.   Any ideas?   TIA,   Bill Pfeiffer
