You'll need to create a custom function in Postgres to support this, which is fairly easy. It's been done before- do a search on Google: http://www.hclausen.net/psql.php On 5 Apr 2007 01:27:15 -0700, marcel.beutner <m.beutner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Hello, Thanks a lot for your answers! But I don't need a sequence which only will be incremented. I need a _real_ GUID just as the newid() function. Is there no way to generate such a GUID? I need a real GUID because I use them further in my host app. And my host app relies on it. Thanks for your answers.
