ORA-0001: unique constraint violated
Here is the entire create trigger
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER "TESTDB"."MYCLASS_TR" BEFORE
INSERT
OR UPDATE ON "MYCLASS" FOR EACH ROW DECLARE
REFCOUNT NUMBER;
DUP_VAL_ON_INDEX EXCEPTION;
TEMP NUMBER;
BEGIN
IF INSERTING THEN
LOOP
SELECT COUNT(*) INTO REFCOUNT
FROM MYCLASS
WHERE :NEW.ID = ID;
IF REFCOUNT > 0 THEN --RECORD EXISTED IN
DATABASE
SELECT MYCLASS_SEQ.NEXTVAL INTO TEMP FROM DUAL;
END IF;
EXIT;
--ELSIF REFCOUNT < 0 THEN
-- EXIT;
-- END IF;
END LOOP;
IF :NEW.ID IS NULL THEN
SELECT MYCLASS_SEQ.NEXTVAL
INTO :NEW.ID
FROM DUAL;
END IF;
END IF; --MAIN IF
END;
thank
JK
