Han,

In order for the updateXXX to work it needs a primary key. This is in
the spec. Furthermore, under the covers this is what is going on.

when you call updateXXX, the driver does

update foo set column=newval where primarykey=val

It needs the primary key to be able to figure out which row to update.
