[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Updated: (HHH-2830) Insert error ignored when using sybase generated identity column

Insert error ignored when using sybase generated identity column ---------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-2830 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2830 Project: Hibernate3 Issue Type: Bug Components: core Affects Versions: 3.2.2 Environment: Hibernate 3.2.2, Sybase 12.5.3 Reporter: Martin van Dijken Attachments: create-test-tables.sql, TestExchangeRate.hbm.xml, TestRateOwner.hbm.xml All our tables have a single database generated identity column. This column is specified in Sybase as: objectId numeric(12) identity A little while ago, Hibernate started throwing NonUniqueObjectExceptions upon insert of a certain object. It turns out, the insert statement could not possibly succeed as the value of one of the columns was larger than the database column. The error is however ignored because Hibernate generates a query: insert into objectTable (objectName, objectNumericErrorField) values (?,?) select @@ identity The value of objectNumericErrorField was larger than the database column allows. The insert statement would therefore fail. The select @@identity however would succeed, only because no new row was inserted it would return the previous ID. Hibernate then assumes the entire query worked fine and would assign the already assigned id to a different object. It would then check whether or not the id was already in use and throw a NonUniqueObjectException
