I am using the following code to insert a new row to database, I need to get the id of the last inserted row but when I run the code it shows the following message:
SEVERE: java.sql.SQLException: Generated keys not requested. You need to specify
Statement.RETURN_GENERATED_KEYS to Statement.executeUpdate() or
Connection.prepareStatement().
When I use the following code also it gives error although I choose executeUpdate(String sql)
ps.executeUpdate(ps.RETURN_GENERATED_KEYS);
error >> no suitable method found for executeUpdate(int)
the table is as following:
credential
int ID primary key, auto increment
varchar(10) name
my code
String Insert_Credential = "Insert into credential values("
+ "?,?)";
ps = con.prepareStatement(Insert_Credential);
ps.setInt(1, 0);
ps.setString(2, "username");
ps.executeUpdate();
ResultSet generatedKeys = ps.getGeneratedKeys();
if (generatedKeys.next()) {
System.out.println("id is"+generatedKeys.getLong(1));
return generatedKeys.getInt(1);
} else {
throw new SQLException("Creating user failed, no generated key obtained.");
}
