Description David Vancouvering 2008-12-03 06:21:18 UTC 
Currently no way to get position of a primary key column in a primary key.

Reassigned to new owner.
Comment 2 matthias42 2013-05-13 19:49:05 UTC 
From the API (org.netbeans.modules.db.metadata.model.api.PrimaryKey#getColumns):

"Get the list of columns for this primary key.  The collection is ordered based on the sequencing of the primary key."

So a user could be bold enough to cast to java.util.List other ordered collections don't seem to be to fitting. Guarded with an instanceof and a fallback to "List<Column> columns = new ArrayList<>(pk.getColumns())" should do it.
