Re: Latest transcation

Consider this:
Transcation begin
'
'
Insert on table x
'
'
Trascation end;

My client C++ front end is multi-threaded. The above 'transcation' block
is in thread -y .
I want to know the info. abt' last row inserted into table in this
transcation block.
Info contains the details like time of insertion of a row and data in
that row.

I think this sufficely explains what I want.

That depends on what you really are trying to do. It sounds like using a
sequnce, nextval and currval might work. That could be used to track the
latest change in one session.

If you try to look at the latest change to a table accross all sessions,
things get a bit murky.

A more precise description of what you are trying to do might result in
some other suggestions.
