How do I create IDs using NHibernate and Firebird?
I am trying to insert some new objects into firebird database using NHibernate.
I get the error "could not get the next sequence value [SQL: SQL not available]"
Here is the mapping I'm currently using. Note ANML_EVNT is the name of the generator I want to use.
<id name="Id" column="ID" type="integer">
<generator class="sequence">
<param name="sequence">ANML_EVNT></param>
</generator>
</id>

If you are still looking for an answer, this is how I used it successfully.
I am using the "native" generator because while adding SQL Server support to our program, the only thing I had to change in NHibernate is the generator types for the "native" ones, because Firebird and SQL Server use their "auto incrementing identity" columns otherwise. In Firebird it used a named generator and in SQL Server it ignores the "sequence" parameter and uses the built-in autoincrement.
Here's an example of what I'm talking about:
<id name="Id" column="ID">
<generator class="native">
<param name="sequence">ANML_EVNT</param>
</generator>
</id>
With all that being said, as gcores answered, all that seems to be wrong with your config is the extra ">" after ANML_EVNT.
