I'm using ormlite for Android and I'm trying to get a multiple column unique-constraint. As of now i'm only able to get a unique constraint on indiviudal columns like this:
CREATE TABLE `store_group_item` (`store_group_id` INTEGER NOT NULL UNIQUE ,
`store_item_id` INTEGER NOT NULL UNIQUE ,
`_id` INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT );
and what I want is
CREATE TABLE `store_group开发者_如何学运维_item` (`store_group_id` INTEGER NOT NULL ,
`store_item_id` INTEGER NOT NULL ,
`_id` INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,
UNIQUE( `store_group_id`, `store_item_id` );
In my model I've been using the following annotations for the unique columns:
@DatabaseField( unique = true )
Is there a way to get this to work?
How about using
@DatabaseField (uniqueCombo = true)
String myField;
annotation instead - is it a matter of the uniqueIndexName being faster when accessing items in the table?
Edit:
As @Ready4Android pointed out, we've since added in version 4.20 support for uniqueCombo
annotation field. Here are the docs:
http://ormlite.com/docs/unique-combo
There should be no performance differences between using this mechanism versus the uniqueIndexName
mentioned below.
Yes. You can't do this with the unique=true
tag but you can with a unique index.
@DatabaseField(uniqueIndexName = "unique_store_group_and_item_ids")
int store_group_id;
@DatabaseField(uniqueIndexName = "unique_store_group_and_item_ids")
int store_item_id;
This will create an index to accomplish the unique-ness but I suspect that the unique=true has a hidden index anyway. See the docs:
http://ormlite.com/docs/unique-index
I will look into allowing multiple unique fields. May not be supported by all database types.
