How to create id with AUTO_INCREMENT on Oracle?

Question

It appears that there is no concept of AUTO_INCREMENT in Oracle, up until and including version 11g.

How can I create a column that behaves like auto increment in Or

Answer 1

Assuming you mean a column like the SQL Server identity column?

In Oracle, you use a SEQUENCE to achieve the same functionality. I'll see if I can find a good link and post it here.

Update: looks like you found it yourself. Here is the link anyway: http://www.techonthenet.com/oracle/sequences.php
