What is the basic difference between when we use native and increment types id generator in hibernate.
As i was having a entity, in which the generator was previuosly native, but then changed it to incremental for some time, it was working properly. But just yesterday, when i changed in to native again, the insertion is failing saying Contraint Violation.
I have index set up in the id field, which is auto generated.
Am i missing something here.
Thanks
Native is generated by DB – if DB do it. Increment – generates by hibernate that are unique only when no other process is inserting data into the same table.
