INSERT, and get the auto-incremented value

Question

Consider the following table:

create table language (
    id integer generated always as identity (START WITH 1, INCREMENT BY 1),
    name long varchar,
             


        

Answer 1

Through plain SQL:

 insert into language(name) values ('value');
 SELECT IDENTITY_VAL_LOCAL();

See the manual for details: http://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.7/ref/rrefidentityvallocal.html

When doing this from a Java class (through JDBC) you can use getGeneratedKeys() after "requesting" them with the approriate executeUpdate() method.
