    public class SybaseMaxValueIncrementer

extends AbstractColumnMaxValueIncrementer

`DataFieldMaxValueIncrementer` that increments the maximum value of a given Sybase SQL Server table with the equivalent of an auto-increment column. Note: If you use this class, your table key column should NOT be defined as an IDENTITY column, as the sequence table does the job.

This class is intended to be used with Sybase Adaptive Server.

The sequence is kept in a table. There should be one sequence table per table that needs an auto-generated key.

Example:

     create table tab (id int not null primary key, text varchar(100))
     create table tab_sequence (id bigint identity)
     insert into tab_sequence values()

If "cacheSize" is set, the intermediate values are served without querying the database. If the server or your application is stopped or crashes or a transaction is rolled back, the unused values will never be served. The maximum hole size in numbering is consequently the value of cacheSize. HINT: Since Sybase supports the JDBC 3.0 `getGeneratedKeys` method, it is recommended to use IDENTITY columns directly in the tables and then using a `SimpleJdbcInsert` or utilizing a `KeyHolder` when calling the with the `update(PreparedStatementCreator psc, KeyHolder generatedKeyHolder)` method of the `JdbcTemplate`.

Thanks to Yinwei Liu for the suggestion!

Constructor Detail

### SybaseMaxValueIncrementer

    public SybaseMaxValueIncrementer()

  Default constructor for bean property style usage.

  See Also:
    `AbstractDataFieldMaxValueIncrementer.setDataSource(javax.sql.DataSource)`, `AbstractDataFieldMaxValueIncrementer.setIncrementerName(java.lang.String)`, `AbstractColumnMaxValueIncrementer.setColumnName(java.lang.String)`

### SybaseMaxValueIncrementer

    public SybaseMaxValueIncrementer(DataSource dataSource,
                                     String incrementerName,
                                     String columnName)

  Convenience constructor.

  Parameters:
    `dataSource` - the DataSource to use
    `incrementerName` - the name of the sequence/table to use
    `columnName` - the name of the column in the sequence table to use

Method Detail

### getNextKey

    protected long getNextKey()
                       throws DataAccessException

  Description copied from class: `AbstractDataFieldMaxValueIncrementer`
  Determine the next key to use, as a long.

  Specified by:
    `getNextKey` in class `AbstractDataFieldMaxValueIncrementer`
  Returns:
    the key to use as a long. It will eventually be converted later in another format by the public concrete methods of this class.
  Throws:
    `DataAccessException`

### getIncrementStatement

    protected String getIncrementStatement()

  Statement to use to increment the "sequence" value. Can be overridden by sub-classes.

  Returns:
    The SQL statement to use
