SmartList and sequence or serial primary keys

Hi Xavier,
I don't believe OmnisSQL allows you to retrieve the generated sequence
number after you insert so your only option is to determine this
yourself before inserting the record.
If you're going to move to Postgres I'd make the move sooner rather then
later so you can make use of Postgres' specific code.
With Postgres simply change your insert query to:
insert into FTEXTOS (TX_TIPO, TXSUBTA, TX_SUBTN, TX_DESCRIP) value
(....) returning TX_SEQ
You can then fetch the new TX_SEQ value.
Note that if you do a:
calculate $cinst.$cols.TX_SEQ.$excludefrominsert as kTrue
in the $construct of your table class to make sure the column isn't
inserted (else the sequence logic in Postgres doesn't work)
Then you override your $insert like so:
----
Calculate lvSQL as con('insert into ',$cinst.$servertablenames,'
',$cinst.$insertnames(),' returning TX_SEQ')
if $cinst.$statementobject.$execdirect(lvSQL)
do $cinst.$statementobject.$fetch(lvList)
calculate $cinst.TX_SEQ as lvList.1.TX_SEQ
quit method kTrue
else
do $cinst.$sqlerror(ktableInsertError,
$cinst.$statementobject.$errorcode, $cinst.$statementobject.$errortext)
quit method kfalse
end if
----
Add a little bit more source to find out the primary key by looking at
the schema class and you can move all this code in your table base class.
Cheers,
Bas
