@SequenceGenerator
If you use the @GeneratedValue
annotation to specify a primary key generator of type SEQUENCE, then you can use the @SequenceGenerator annotation to fine-tune this primary key generator to do the following:
- change the allocation size to match your application requirements or database performance parameters; (this should match your database sequence
INCREMENT
) - change the initial value to match an existing data model (for example, if you are building on an existing data set for which a range of
Attribute | Description | Default | Required? |
---|---|---|---|
name | The name of the generator must match the name of a GeneratedValue with its strategy attribute set to SEQUENCE. | Yes | |
allocationSize | An int value that must match the increment size of the database sequence object. | 50 | No |
initialValue | An int value to start all primary keys. | 0 | No |
sequenceName | A String name of the sequence | SequenceGenerator.name | No |
The following example shows how to use this annotation to specify the allocation size for the SEQUENCE primary key generator named Emp_Seq.
Example: @SequenceGenerator
@Entity public class Employee implements Serializable { ... @Id @SequenceGenerator(name="Emp_Seq", allocationSize=25) @GeneratedValue(strategy=SEQUENCE, generator="Emp_Seq") @Column(name="EMP_ID") public Long getId() { return id; } ... }
Example: Using <sequence-generator>
<entity class="Employee"> <attributes> <id name="id"> <column name="EMP_ID"/> <generated-value generator="Emp_Seq" strategy="SEQUENCE"/> <sequence-generator name="Emp_Seq" allocationSize="25"/> </id> ... </attributes> </entity>
