Hi Steve and thanks for you answer. Try the following scenario.
The problem is to get back the primary key when doing an insert. Say that you have a master/slave relation between two tables. You insert a row into master. Then you are going to insert a few rows connected to the master into slave. How do you know the id-number of your master? I know that mysql has a non-jdbc soloution for this but since one of our general design goals are portable code...... So, we have desided to take the same apporach as Object-Relational Bridge. We created our own id-generator to handle the problem. But its has created a new set of problems now when we are going to use multiple web-apps and (in a not so distant future) mutiple servers.
