jOOQ insert query with returning generated keys

The syntax you're using is for inserting multiple records. This is going to insert 4 records, each with one field.

.values(node.getParentid()).values(node.getName()).values(node.getRem()).values(node.getUipos())

But you declared 4 fields, so that's not going to work:

create.insertInto(Tblcategory.TBLCATEGORY,   Tblcategory.PARENT_ID, Tblcategory.NAME, Tblcategory.REM, Tblcategory.UIPOS)

What you probably want to do is this:

Result<TblcategoryRecord> result = create  .insertInto(Tblcategory.TBLCATEGORY,     Tblcategory.PARENT_ID, Tblcategory.NAME, Tblcategory.REM, Tblcategory.UIPOS)  .values(node.getParentid(), node.getName(), node.getRem(), node.getUipos())  .returning(Tblcategory.CATEGORY_ID)  .fetch();

Or alternatively:

Result<TblcategoryRecord> result = create  .insertInto(Tblcategory.TBLCATEGORY)   .set(Tblcategory.PARENT_ID, node.getParentid())  .set(Tblcategory.NAME, node.getName())  .set(Tblcategory.REM, node.getRem())  .set(Tblcategory.UIPOS, node.getUipos())  .returning(Tblcategory.CATEGORY_ID)  .fetch();

Probably, you're even better off by using

TblcategoryRecord result =  // [...]  .fetchOne();

For more details, consider the manual:

Or the Javadoc for creating INSERT statements that return values:

preffered SOLUTION

  try {    TblcategoryRecord record = (TblcategoryRecord) create      .insertInto(Tblcategory.TBLCATEGORY)       .set(Tblcategory.PARENT_ID, node.getParentid())      .set(Tblcategory.NAME, node.getName())      .set(Tblcategory.REM, node.getRem())      .set(Tblcategory.UIPOS, node.getUipos())      .returning(Tblcategory.CATEGORY_ID)      .fetchOne();      node.setId(record.getCategoryId());    } catch (SQLException e1) { }

Try

YoutableRecord result = create.insertInto(YOURTABLE).set(YOURTABLE.PROD_NAME, "VAL").returning(YOURTABLE.ID_PR).fetchOne();int id = result.getValue(Products.PRODUCTS.ID_PR);
