public static final GenerationType TABLE
public static final GenerationType SEQUENCE
public static final GenerationType IDENTITY
public static final GenerationType AUTO
AUTO generation strategy may expect a database
resource to exist, or it may attempt to create one. A vendor
may provide documentation on how to create such resources
in the event that it does not support schema generation
or cannot create the schema resource at runtime.
