autoincrement=true

When using autoincrement on a primary key field

example:

@PrimaryKey (autoincrement=true) long id;

it appears the counter is getting reset when items are deleted. In other words, available ID’s lower than the MAX ID in a table are being re-used. It appears DB flow is managing its own internal autoincrement value?

In a scenario of insert record a, b, c. Their IDs become 1,2,3 respectively. If I remove item c and add item d I would expect item d’s ID to be 4, but its not, its 3.

Is this the desired behaviour?

Here is an example of the class. Appreciate you looking into this…

To remove (delete) I just call someInstance.delete();

If I remove all items in the table, the next insert starts with an ID of 0.

`package com.fish4fun.myapp.models;

import android.util.Log;

import com.raizlabs.android.dbflow.annotation.Column; import com.raizlabs.android.dbflow.annotation.ModelContainer; import com.raizlabs.android.dbflow.annotation.PrimaryKey; import com.raizlabs.android.dbflow.annotation.Table; import com.raizlabs.android.dbflow.structure.BaseModel;

import java.io.File;

@ModelContainer @Table(database = MyAppDatabase.class) public class SomeEntity extends BaseModel {

@PrimaryKey(autoincrement = true)
long id;

@Column
int order;

@Column
String name;

@Column
String filename;

@Column
String code;

@Column
String type;

@Column
int color;

@Column
long created;

@Column
long modified;

public SomeEntity() {
    super();
}

public long getId() {
    return id;
}

public void setId(long id) {
    this.id = id;
}

more getters and setters… }`
