You can probably file a change request on the spec, wherever that
tracker is. That way it's out there on file and someone will have to
address it one way or another. :) We do that with the JSF spec.

Will provision ever be made for this type of thing or is there
just not enough demand for this type of functionality?

Hello All,
There is no support in the JPA Specification for
pluggable Generation types. Only the 4 predefined types : TABLE,
SEQUENCE, IDENTITY, AUTO which represent popular database sequencing
methods.

This seems like a Data Base question. Not a

MS SQL will do auto gen GUIDs as PKs.

Is this even possible? Please help here. Been
sitting on this the whole
day and I just can't find docs on it. Should I
rather post this in the
forum?
Thanks

This might be a really weird question so please
forgive me
Is there anyway to auto generate a unique ID
using a custom routine for
the record?
i.e.: I would like to use a GUID as the PK value
for an entity. Is this
possible?
Thanks
Kenneth , What is your persistence mechanism ?
in case that you are using EJB3 you can have your own
generator to generate your entity IDs.
in case that you are using plain JDBC you can simply
generate the ID and put it into the column when you insert a row into
database.
