Just map the PK (entry_id) as an ObjAttribute (so it becomes object property) and don't forget to set it to a non-null value before commit. In this case Cayenne will skip the auto-generation step.

Hi all,
I'd like to trigger off the auto pk generation? I don't see how to do that ?
Is it possible ?


I 've got a small schema with a map.xml  contents like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<data-map project-version="2.0">
       <property name="defaultPackage" value="data.dbcayenne"/

       <property name="defaultSchema" value="dbo"/>
<db-entity name="ztextTestT" schema="dbo" catalog="KplusLocal1">
               <db-attribute name="entry_id" type="INTEGER"
isPrimaryKey="true" isMandatory=
"true" length="10"/>
               <db-attribute name="ztext" type="LONGVARBINARY"
isMandatory="true" length="21
47483647"/>
       </db-entity>
       <obj-entity name="ZtextTestT" className="data.dbcayenne
.ZtextTestT" dbEntityName="ztextTestT">
<obj-attribute name="ztext" type="dao.impl.cayenne.ZTextType"
db-attribute-path="ztext"/>
       </obj-entity>
</data-map>

I'd like to have a PK strategy a la 'Hibernate assigned' where I 'll provide
the key..
(I can't make many things on the database managed by my customers, so I'd
like to be as transparent as possible)


Thanks
Jerome
