Dolt recommends customers prefer UUIDs over
auto_increment
values where possible. Forauto_increment
columns, the MySQLlast_insert_id()
function helps to retrieve the last generated ID, but there's not an analogue for UUIDs. This PR adds a new system session variable,@@last_generated_uuid
that is populated each time theUUID()
function is executed. Note that this is not a standard MySQL behavior.Customer request: dolthub/dolt#7547
