Google AppEngine数据存储仪表板：是否创建具有“旧式”样式ID的实体？

Question

I understand that the Google AppEngine Data Store changed their default policy on how ID's are auto-generated.

We have application code that expects all ID's to be less than the maximum value for an Integer. In trying to create sample data using the dashboard ("Datastore Viewer"), there is a way to create Entities manually. However when I do this, there appears to be no place to manually set the ID, and the auto-generated ID is larger than the maximum Integer value.

Setting <auto-id-policy>legacy</auto-id-policy> in appengine-web.xml and re-deploying did not seem to help.

I understand when you create Entities programmatically, you can specify your own ID number. Is there any way to do this from the Dashboard, or at least use "legacy" auto-id generation?

Answer 1

No, the Datastore Viewer only allows auto-generated IDs. :(
