How to don't update sequence on rollback of a transaction

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi folks,

I did a test with transactions and wondered about an behavior I didn't
expected. At http://pastebin.geany.org/bYQNo/raw/ I posted a complete
backlog for.

To make it short: I created a table with a serial and started a
transactions. After this I was inserting values into the table but did a
rollback. However. The sequence of the serial filed has been incremented
by 1 on each insert (which is fine), but wasn't reset after rollback of
transaction.

Documentation stats:
"If, partway through the transaction, we decide we do not wantto commit
(perhaps we just noticed that Alice's balance went   negative), we can
issue the command ROLLBACK instead of COMMIT, and all our updates so far
will be canceled."

My understanding of all was that it includes sequences. Obviously, I'm
wrong... but how to do it right?

Cheers,
Frank
