Postgres 8.1 sequences and 'CALL'-syntax

["Schnabl, Sebastian" <s(dot)schnabl(at)qualitype(dot)de>]

Hello,

I use postgres 8.1 and trie to run jboss over sequoia-ha (http://sequoia.continuent.org/HomePage). But i have an problem with sequences. Sequoia claims to support for good reasons and db-independece only "sql-standard(s)". Therefore they DON'T support the postgres-specific "select nextval('seq_name')". Instead they gave me the hint to use the sql-conform "call nexval('seq_name')".

But unfortunately i always get only an syntax error on "call" from jdbc-driver or specially postgres as result.

How can i use sequences in conjunction with "call"-syntax??

Thx in advance
