[Gusdev-gusdev] SubmitRow fixed

[Fidel S. <fi...@vb...>]

Steve,

The SubmitRow algo_invo option does not seem to work, or at least does
not work as I would expect it to.

Needing to upload some type of data that GUS does not currently
address, I needed to use SubmitRow for inserting 10s of thousands of
rows into a view.  I thought that if I used the algo_invo option I
could use the same algorithm_invocation_id for all inserts.
Therefore, I wrote a script that would do the initial insertion, get
that initial insertion's algorithm invocation id, and then invoke
SubmitRow with the algo_invo option (with the value being the initial
algorithm invocation id).  SubmitRow then proceeds to do the
insertions but ignores the algo_invo option and creates algorithm
invocation ids for all the new inserts.

Is my interpretation of how the algo_invo option should work not
correct?  Or is that option only to be used when the system can
absolutely not generate new ids?  If the latter, it seems to me that
if the system cannot generate new ids, one should not be inserting new
data and fix the problem of not being able to generate new ids.

Thanks

Fidel
