title: How is my id being generated with JPA using Hibernate with the Oracle 10g dialect?
body: <p>I have some code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Id
  @SequenceGenerator(name = "SOMETHING_SEQ")
  @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.SEQUENCE, generator = "SOMETHING_SEQ")
  @Column(name = "SOMETHING", nullable = false)
  private Long id;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How is hibernate providing my id? </p>
  
  <p>I see in my database there a single sequence named 'hibernate_sequence' and no other hibernate   'special tables'.</p>
