Thanks BJ
I'm pretty sure I can overcome this problem...(I've been using OFBiz of several years now.) Not to insult anyone - I just wanted to let you guys know that the README instructions do not give the desired results. IMHO, the project shouldn't be putting out pre-packaged code with instructions that don't work as advertised. It's just not good for business. But then, that is just my humble opinion.

If you go the build.ofbiz.org page - where the directions are that I put up there - have the following command:
java -Xmx256M -jar ofbiz.jar If you do this, it works fine. That being said, it's not the same as the startofbiz.sh script, so if all are in favor, then we should change that. Where do you get your instructions from Ruth?

In reply to this post by Tim Ruppert
Hi Tim:
I just followed the directions in the README file in the root directory created by the unzip of the download. I suggest someone change the README file to reflect your correction. IMHO, newbies, downloading and test riding OFBiz for the first time - will not tolerate looking in 2 or 3 places to figure this out - they will go to the README file first and if that isn't correct - they will move on to the next open source ERP package. At least newbies that have a Unix background (because they are familiar with READMEs).

In reply to this post by Ruth Hoffman-2
Hi list,
I'd like to use a custom ID generator - for instance rather to start from 10000 and increment by 10 I'd like to start from 0, increment by 1 leaving no empty values and probably append some other rules - like to reset to 0 in the beginning of each year and prefix the returned ID by the current year. Example: 200900001 200900002 .... 200932110 .... 201000001 <--- a new year starts. I know it may sound pretty dumb, but the law makers in some countries are not so smart. So - could somebody give me some hints - is it possible to specify a custom ID generator per field typed "id-ne" in the entitymodel.xml ? Thanks in advance, Deyan |

Take a look at the party/organization accounting preferences in the Accounting Manager. If you're looking for this sort of sequencing for invoices, orders, etc then it is already supported. -David On Jun 13, 2009, at 5:44 AM, Deyan Tsvetanov wrote: > Hi list, > > I'd like to use a custom ID generator - for instance rather to start > from 10000 and increment by 10 I'd like to start from 0, increment > by 1 > leaving no empty values and probably append some other rules - like to > reset to 0 in the beginning of each year and prefix the returned ID by > the current year. > > Example: > > 200900001 > 200900002 > .... > 200932110 > .... > 201000001 <--- a new year starts. > > I know it may sound pretty dumb, but the law makers in some countries > are not so smart. > > So - could somebody give me some hints - is it possible to specify a > custom ID generator per field typed "id-ne" in the entitymodel.xml ? > > Thanks in advance, > Deyan > |

Looks like the best way to do it is to use the GenericDelegator but with

In reply to this post by Ruth Hoffman-2
the problem is not in the Entity, since they are already id-ne for ID's
but the code that gets the next ID number. I believe you are thinking in Database terms where the you can specify the type on increment. Ofbiz does not use such database features. David mentioned a away to accomplish this so maybe he will respond on this one.

Re: Custom entity ID generator

Exactly, I knew I've seen it somewhere :)
"Enforced Sequence (no gaps, per organization)" Thanks guys, I'll have a look at it. Another question: do you have any idea how this enforced sequence might behave in case of two ofbiz servers - in a cluster or sharing a database ? My goal is to generate IDs without absolutely any gaps. Another very important requirement is that the order of the record's CREATED_DATE should match the order of the IDs. It is not possible to go back and fill a gap. Example: A good example: ID | CREATED_DATE --------------------------------------------- 1 | 1 June 9:00 AM 2 | 1 June 10:00 AM A bad example: ID | CREATED_DATE --------------------------------------------- 1 | 1 June 10:00 AM 2 | 1 June 9:00 AM I already have an idea of a workaround, but I'll investigate the enforced sequence first.

Re: Custom entity ID generator

Hi again,
finally I used GenericDelegator.getNextSeqIdLong() when creating entities. It does increment the sequence by 1. However today I noticed, that in the database - sequence_value_item table - the seq_id value gets incremented by 10. The reason is that the org.ofbiz.entity.util.SequenceUtil class creates a SequenceBank with the default value ot 10 IDs. This is a MAJOR problem. It would appear if the server dies or gets a hard restart for some reason ( or even JVM error ) - we'll end up with gaps. I couldn't find any API that forces the SequenceUtil to create a SequnenceBank sized to 1 . Is there a way to do it ? Also: I couldn't find any info in the mail threads regarding this sequencing mechanism being thread safe. Although I ran several threads requesting next ID from the same sequence - and it works OK - I am not quite convinced what would happen if we have 2 ofbiz instances running against the same database. Is this setup supported ? Thanks in advance, Deyan On Sat, 2009-06-13 at 15:27 +0200, Jacques Le Roux wrote: > This has been already dicussed many times.

Re: Custom entity ID generator

I recall my comment about the sequences thread safety - in case we start
2 ofbiz instances against the same database :) But the 1st issue remains - configuring the sequence bank size for specific entities. I suggest adding a new column in SequenceValueItem - bank_size. If it is set to 0 than SequenceUtil will not create a SequenceBank for that entity but will read the current seq_id from the database instead. This is needed to ensure there will be no gaps in the sequence IDs for entities that do require no gaps because of legal requirements in some countries :) -- deyan On Mon, 2009-06-22 at 17:30 +0300, Deyan Tsvetanov wrote: > Hi again, > > finally I used GenericDelegator.getNextSeqIdLong() when creating > entities. > > It does increment the sequence by 1. > > However today I noticed, that in the database - sequence_value_item > table - the seq_id value gets incremented by 10. > > The reason is that the org.ofbiz.entity.util.SequenceUtil class creates > a SequenceBank with the default value ot 10 IDs. > > This is a MAJOR problem.
