Description
The auto increment of a table is not counting continuously in any case. For example create a table:
CREATE TABLE `foo` ( |
`ID` INT(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, |
`Name` VARCHAR(50) NULL DEFAULT NULL COLLATE 'utf8mb4_unicode_ci', |
PRIMARY KEY (`ID`) |
)
|
COLLATE='utf8mb4_unicode_ci' |
ENGINE=InnoDB;
|
Then insert some rows:
insert into foo(Name) |
SELECT '421' UNION |
SELECT '422' UNION |
SELECT '423' UNION |
SELECT '424'; |
After that the added rows have the correct ID, but the auto_increment of the table is not 5 but 8.
Running the statement again:
insert into foo(Name) |
SELECT '421' UNION |
SELECT '422' UNION |
SELECT '423' UNION |
SELECT '424'; |
Leads to the following table:
ID | Name |
---|---|
1 | 421 |
2 | 422 |
3 | 423 |
4 | 424 |
8 | 421 |
9 | 422 |
10 | 423 |
11 | 424 |
And the auto_increment of the table is 15.
