In doubt with sqlite3-ruby

[aurelianito]

Hi!
I have a table with an AUTOINCREMENT primary key and I would like to
know how to retrieve this primary key when a new row is inserted. Is it
possible?

Below, I written some sample ruby code for you to see my problem.

require 'sqlite3'
db = SQLite3:atabase.new( "test.db" )
db.execute "create table if not exists t1(id integer PRIMARY KEY
AUTOINCREMENT, v1, v2);"

# some code, skipped, may include inserts to t1

db.execute "insert into t1 (v1,v2) values (1,2)" # don't know the
primary key assigned.
db.execute "insert into t1 (v1,v2) values (3,4)" # don't know the
primary key assigned.


Thank's in advance,
Aureliano.

Just INTEGER PRIMARY KEY should be enough.

# some code, skipped, may include inserts to t1

db.execute "insert into t1 (v1,v2) values (1,2)" # don't know the
primary key assigned.
db.execute "insert into t1 (v1,v2) values (3,4)" # don't know the
primary key assigned.

The method is called last_insert_rowid, I think,
check the API docs to verify.

Thank's in advance,

The method is called last_insert_rowid, I think,
check the API docs to verify.

The method is last_insert_row_id (note the "_" between row and id).
Thank you very much for the tip (I didn't knew where look for it).
