这是我如何在一个现有的表和列(名为id)上做到这一点:

UPDATE table SET id=ROWNUM;
DECLARE
  maxval NUMBER;
BEGIN
  SELECT MAX(id) INTO maxval FROM table;
  EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'DROP SEQUENCE table_seq';
  EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE SEQUENCE table_seq START WITH '|| TO_CHAR(TO_NUMBER(maxval)+1) ||' INCREMENT BY 1 NOMAXVALUE';
END;
CREATE TRIGGER table_trigger
  BEFORE INSERT ON table
  FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
  :new.id := table_seq.NEXTVAL;
END;

这里是完整的解决方案w.r.t异常/错误处理自动增量，这个解决方案向后兼容，将工作在11g和12c，特别是如果应用程序在生产中。

请用合适的表名替换'TABLE_NAME'

--checking if table already exisits
BEGIN
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'DROP TABLE TABLE_NAME';
    EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN NULL;
END;
/

--creating table
CREATE TABLE TABLE_NAME (
       ID NUMBER(10) PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
       .
       .
       .
);

--checking if sequence already exists
BEGIN
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'DROP SEQUENCE TABLE_NAME_SEQ';
    EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN NULL;
END;

--creating sequence
/
CREATE SEQUENCE TABLE_NAME_SEQ START WITH 1 INCREMENT BY 1 MINVALUE 1 NOMAXVALUE NOCYCLE CACHE 2;

--granting rights as per required user group
/
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE ON TABLE_NAME TO USER_GROUP;

-- creating trigger
/
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER TABLE_NAME_TS BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE ON TABLE_NAME FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN    
    -- auto increment column
    SELECT TABLE_NAME_SEQ.NextVal INTO :New.ID FROM dual;

    -- You can also put some other required default data as per need of your columns, for example
    SELECT SYS_CONTEXT('USERENV', 'SESSIONID') INTO :New.SessionID FROM dual;
    SELECT SYS_CONTEXT('USERENV','SERVER_HOST') INTO :New.HostName FROM dual;
    SELECT SYS_CONTEXT('USERENV','OS_USER') INTO :New.LoginID FROM dual;    
    .
    .
    .
END;
/

假设您指的是类似SQL Server标识列的列?

在Oracle中，您可以使用SEQUENCE来实现相同的功能。我看看能不能找到一个好的链接，然后贴在这里。

更新:看起来你自己找到了。这里是链接: http://www.techonthenet.com/oracle/sequences.php

这里有三种口味:

数字。简单递增的数值，例如1,2,3，.... GUID。全局通用标识符，作为RAW数据类型。 GUID(字符串)。与上面相同，但作为字符串，在某些语言中可能更容易处理。

X是单位列。在每个示例中，用表名替换FOO。

-- numerical identity, e.g. 1,2,3...
create table FOO (
    x number primary key
);
create sequence  FOO_seq;

create or replace trigger FOO_trg
before insert on FOO
for each row
begin
  select FOO_seq.nextval into :new.x from dual;
end;
/

-- GUID identity, e.g. 7CFF0C304187716EE040488AA1F9749A
-- use the commented out lines if you prefer RAW over VARCHAR2.
create table FOO (
    x varchar(32) primary key        -- string version
    -- x raw(32) primary key         -- raw version
);

create or replace trigger FOO_trg
before insert on FOO
for each row
begin
  select cast(sys_guid() as varchar2(32)) into :new.x from dual;  -- string version
  -- select sys_guid() into :new.x from dual;                     -- raw version
end;
/

更新:

Oracle 12c引入了两个不依赖触发器的变体:

create table mytable(id number default mysequence.nextval);
create table mytable(id number generated as identity);

第一个是传统的序列;第二个在内部管理值。

查询如何在oracle中创建自动增量。在下面的查询中，每当插入新行时，列值将自动递增

CREATE TABLE table1(
id RAW(16) NOT NULL ENABLE,
incrmnt NUMBER(10,0) GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY
MINVALUE 1 MAXVALUE 999999999999999999999999999 INCREMENT BY 1 START WITH 1 NOORDER NOCYCLE NOT NULL ENABLE,
CONSTRAINT PK_table1 PRIMARY KEY (id) ENABLE);

FUNCTION UNIQUE2(
 seq IN NUMBER
) RETURN VARCHAR2
AS
 i NUMBER := seq;
 s VARCHAR2(9);
 r NUMBER(2,0);
BEGIN
  WHILE i > 0 LOOP
    r := MOD( i, 36 );
    i := ( i - r ) / 36;
    IF ( r < 10 ) THEN
      s := TO_CHAR(r) || s;
    ELSE
      s := CHR( 55 + r ) || s;
    END IF;
  END LOOP;
  RETURN 'ID'||LPAD( s, 14, '0' );
END;
