The Sequence type exposes the following members.

Constructors

  NameDescription
SequenceOverloaded.

Methods

  NameDescription
Close
Close the sequence handle. Any unused cached values are lost.
Dispose
Release the resources held by this object, and close the sequence if it's still open.
Equals
Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
GetOverloaded.

If there are enough cached values in the sequence handle then they will be returned. Otherwise the next value will be fetched from the database and incremented (decremented) by enough to cover the delta and the next batch of cached values.

By default, sequence ranges do not wrap; to cause the sequence to wrap around the beginning or end of its range, set Wrap to true.

GetHashCode
Serves as a hash function for a particular type.
(Inherited from Object.)
GetType
Gets the type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
PrintStatsOverloaded.
The diagnostic information is described by SequenceStats.
RemoveOverloaded.
StatsOverloaded.

In the presence of multiple threads or processes accessing an active sequence, the information returned by DB_SEQUENCE->stat() may be out-of-date.

The DB_SEQUENCE->stat() method cannot be transaction-protected. For this reason, it should be called in a thread of control that has no open cursors or active transactions.

ToString
Returns a string that represents the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)

Properties

  NameDescription
BackingDatabase
The database used by the sequence.
Cachesize
The current cache size.
Decrement
If true, the sequence will be decremented.
Increment
If true, the sequence will be incremented. This is the default.
Key
The key for the sequence.
Max
The maximum value in the sequence.
Min
The minimum value in the sequence.
Wrap
If true, the sequence should wrap around when it is incremented (decremented) past the specified maximum (minimum) value.
