Yeah, the driver just blindly tacks a " RETURNING *" to the end of the
SQL string if you specify RETURN_GENERATED_KEYS. I'm tempted to do
something like this:
*** AbstractJdbc3Connection.java 23 Dec 2009 10:28:40 +0200 1.21
--- AbstractJdbc3Connection.java 23 Apr 2010 18:49:44 +0300

+ if (autoGeneratedKeys != Statement.NO_GENERATED_KEYS)
+ {
+ String trimmedSql = sql.trim();
+ if (!trimmedSql.regionMatches(true, 0, "INSERT", 0, 6) &&
+ !trimmedSql.regionMatches(true, 0, "UPDATE", 0, 6) &&
+ !trimmedSql.regionMatches(true, 0, "DELETE", 0, 6))
+ autoGeneratedKeys = Statement.NO_GENERATED_KEYS;
+ }
+
if (autoGeneratedKeys != Statement.NO_GENERATED_KEYS)
sql = AbstractJdbc3Statement.addReturning(this, sql, new
String[]{"*"}, false);
But that's not very bullet-proof, and will fail to detect the statement
as an INSERT if it e.g begins with a comment. We could add a mini-parser
to detect comments too, but it's not a very robust approach.
