But that’s the thing, AFAIK we do *not* store it that way today as we don’t use valueColumnName. So today we store it like this { “_id”: 1, “sequence_value”: 10 } so 10 and 24 has to both live at the same time in sequence _value. _______________________________________________ hibernate-dev mailing list hibernate-dev@lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/hibernate-dev
