Hi all,
Is it possible to automatically update the sequence after the literal
value was used in INSERT statement?
For instance,
CREATE SEQUENCE test_table_id; -- test_table_id = 1
CREATE TABLE test_table (
id INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT nextval('test_table_id') CHECK (id >= 0),
column1 VARCHAR(255),
PRIMARY KEY (id)
)
INSERT INTO test_table (id, column1) VALUES (1000, 'something');
Here, I used literal value for ID (1000), and I want my sequence to be
updated to 1000 automatically (i.e. without calling setval).
I'm trying to achieve something similar to MySQL's auto_increment feature.

Ognjen
