Re: [JDBC] Returning oid or primary key

2001-05-03 Thread Bruce Momjian 

 However, _if_ RETURNING is going to be in the standard SQL for the
 next release, _and_ there are plans to update the jdbc driver to take
 advantage of that in the callable statement, as well, then it makes
 more sense _not_ to add my patch that implements the 'overloading' of
 the return value in the jdbc driver.
 
 I guess the issue is the ability to return the primary key from an
 inserted row, for cases that it's auto-generated, such as using the
 serial type.

Certainly the portable solution is to get RETURNING into the backend so
you can decide what you want to return.

I agree.  Is that currently planned for the next release?
