TColumnMetadata.AutoGenerated Property

Indicates whether the column value is generated automatically by the database server (identity or autoincrement column).

Remarks

The exact mechanism differs by engine: SQL Server uses IDENTITY, MySQL uses AUTO_INCREMENT, and so on. In all cases the column holds an integer value whose value is assigned by the database on each INSERT.

Syntax

Unit: Aurelius.Sql.Metadata

property TColumnMetadata.AutoGenerated: Boolean
