Re: [eclipselink-users] Sequence generator - as a service

[James Sutherland <jamesssss@xxxxxxxxx>]

So my understanding is that you want to assign the sequence numbers to your
objects yourself, outside of the transaction where the objects are
persisted.

You can do this in EclipseLink using the EclipseLink Session API
getNextSequenceNumberValue(Class).  You will need to cast your JPA
EntityManager to get the EclipseLink Session from it.
