[jira] Commented: (DERBY-1495) Attempt to modify an identity column error after resetting identity column

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1495?page=comments#action_12436168 ] 
            
Jimisola Laursen commented on DERBY-1495:
-----------------------------------------

Seems as if a lot of people have came across this issue. It was reported more than two months ago and still no action - not even a comment from the developer team.

This issue has minor priority, but it should be considered MAJOR. We currently have to copy the Derby database back-and-forth due to this issue.
I sincerely hope that this will get into 10.2. Especially, since Derby 10.2 will be the JavaDB shipped with the JDK (if am not mistaking).

> When an identity counter is altered using the ALTER TABLE statement below, it seems as if the GENERATED BY DEFAULT behavior is lost.
> The following statements will reproduce the error.
> CREATE TABLE MYTABLE (
>   id   INT GENERATED BY DEFAULT AS IDENTITY (START WITH 1, INCREMENT BY 1) NOT NULL
>  ,col2 INT NOT NULL
> )
> -- Insert using an explicit value on the ID-field
> INSERT INTO MYTABLE(ID, COL2) VALUES(2, 2)
> -- Reset the identity field
> ALTER TABLE mytable ALTER COLUMN id RESTART WITH 3
> -- Try inserting another explicit value and the error below is thrown.
> INSERT INTO MYTABLE(ID, COL2) VALUES(4, 4)
> Error: SQL Exception: Attempt to modify an identity column 'ID'. , SQL State: 42Z23, Error Code: 30000
> -- Although, this works fine
> INSERT INTO MYTABLE(COL2) VALUES(4)
