For the magic attribute, I need a unique identifier so that the
external data can reference the SQL object. The id column would appear
to be the obvious choice as is seen in the example at:
http://sqlobject.org/SQLObject.html#adding-magic-attributes-properties
Ideally SQLObject would either determine the id before row insertion
(e.g. in PostgreSQL select nextval('blah_id_seq');) or defer setting
of magic attributes until after the row is inserted.
I imagine that deferring the setting would be the easiest method
with respect to database compatibility and would have better
performance.
What do you think ?
Regards,
Emmanuel
