Is there a cross database platform way to get the primary key of the record you have just inserted?

Answer 1

extraneon's answer, although correct, doesn't work for Oracle.

The way you do this for Oracle is:

String key[] = {"ID"}; //put the name of the primary key column

ps = con.prepareStatement(insertQuery, key);
ps.executeUpdate();

rs = ps.getGeneratedKeys();
if (rs.next()) {
    generatedKey = rs.getLong(1);
}
