Hi Adam, "Interesting question. What's driving this requirement? Integers are not a finite resource..." One of our RDM project leaders who doesn't really want to see any gaps in the id sequence. It's not really a functional requirement so I guess its more of a question of how easy is it to do? I think if it's something that's tricky, as Ian indicated, we'll have to see how important it really is.

I made a simple auto complete file for the projects field, that worked in Eprints 3.3.12, but broke in 3.3.13. Most others worked, though I don't think Journal title has ever worked. But after upgrading to Eprints 3.3.14 only Title works, like Matheiu wrote. On 24-03-2015 13:25, Mathieu Perron wrote: > Hi Alen, > > Thank you for your reply!

The eprintid assignment is incremental but due to deletion, and accidentally created records via the new item button, many ids in the sequence can go unused. Is it possible to recycle these in some way? Many thanks, Simon. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

With trickery, all things are possible on code. The challenge is that the eprintid also relates to directory locations for documents... which means that when you search for "the next free slot", you need to check that the records isn't in use in the database (remembering that records can be in a users inbox or in the retired buffer too), and that the directory [tree] is not present. -- Ian Stuart.
