Hi,
assuming
SELECT nextval('s'), currval('s');
or
SELECT * FROM (VALUES (nextval('s'), currval('s'))) t;
is there any guarantee that the 2 output values are the same?
Assuming you are only working in single session:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/10/static/functions-sequence.html
"currval
Return the value most recently obtained by nextval for this
sequence in the current session. (An error is reported if nextval has
never been called for this sequence in this session.) Because this is
returning a session-local value, it gives a predictable answer whether
or not other sessions have executed nextval since the current session did."
Thanks,
Torsten
