Add a new sequence to your database:
CREATE SEQUENCE my_session_id;
Then, at the start of every session:
SELECT nextval('my_session_id');
and whenever you need the value:
SELECT currval('my_session_id');
Good idea, but it won't work for what I need.
I'll be able to do get the nextval('my_session_id') as soon as the
session initiates, but my problem is that I need to make all the
subsecuent actions aware of that particular value. using
currval('my_session_id') is not good, as any other session is likely to
also change my_session_id to another value.
No - other sessions will see different values. Test it and see.
