Re: Sequencing Problem in Transaction..

Ummm...this is not a bug - it is utterly essential that sequences are not
rolled back!!!

Think about this:

Sequence counter is 9
Transaction 1 gets sequence no. 10
Transaction 2 gets sequence no. 11
transaction 1 rolls back, sequence no. reset to 9
Transaction 3 gets sequence number 10
Transaction 4 gets sequence number 11 - BAM!!!
