Thread: finding current oid

Is there a way to return the current oid of a transaction?

I am trying to:

begin;
insert into db something;
select current session oid
commit;

I will only ever be inserting one row during the transaction.

Is this doable?

Thanks for your time.

Transactions don't have oids, only table rows do.  The libpq function
PQoidValue() will possibly give you the last affected oid.
