Hello.
A table has two primary keys:
It appears that you really meant "a table has a two-field composite
primary key". There can only be one primary key for a table, that's the
whole point - but the primary key can be composed of more than one field.
[Note: if you format your SQL when you post, more people will bother to
read it and try to help you out. For example, your CREATE TABLE could've
been better written as:]
CREATE TABLE example (
> pk1 integer,
> pk2 integer,
PRIMARY KEY (pk1, pk2)
);
To add a new record I use command:
INSERT INTO example (pk1, pk2) VALUES (0, 0).
Before adding the new
record I have to find out the last value of pk2. How can I use something
like this:
INSERT INTO example (pk1, pk2) VALUES (0, nextval('pk2'))
?
If a table just has one primary key I can use sequence (CREATE
SEQUENCE). What about two primary keys?
You can still use a SERIAL type or manually use CREATE SEQUENCE and
nextval() .
I suspect I'm missing the point of your question, though. Perhaps if you
gave a real-world example of what you are trying to do, with meaningful
field names?
