>                 Key: HHH-1003
>                 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-1003
>             Project: Hibernate Core
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: core
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.5
>         Environment: Hibernate 3.0.5
> PostgreSQL 8.0.3
>            Reporter: Simone Bordet
>
> The class org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect overrides (incorrectly, I think, for PostgreSQL 8 at least) the method getNativeIdentifierGeneratorClass(), returning SequenceGenerator.class.
> Since PostgreSQL supports IdentityGenerator, via serial and bigserial data types, it would be cool to have it supported out of the box from Hibernate.
> Note that the behavior of the base class org.hibernate.dialect.Dialect is already what is needed; that is, there is no need to override getNativeIdentifierGeneratorClass() in PostgreSQLDialect.
> I have no idea if this is done for compatibility with older PostgreSQL versions; if so, maybe a solution like OracleDialect/Oracle9Dialect may be used.
> Thanks !
