Working with a derby connection in Runtime window, creating a new column, I miss the capacity of creating autogenerated keys (IDENTITY columns in Derby) from the GUI. On the opposite direction, when creating my JPA persistent entity beans from a Derby database, the autogeneration capability is not recognized, and I must type the annotation '@GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.IDENTITY)' in all entities with identity columns. This annotation is required in order to be able to persist entities in the database. I think this would help to many developers.
Reassigned to new owner.
