Since you've used magic word "java" you're not bounced to IB-Support
list :)

As far as I know there is no chance to get value of an ID generated
during execution of INSERT ... statement. You can either select next
ID directly before executing INSERT with

SELECT gen_id(my_generator, 1) FROM RDB$DATABASE

or you can get a block of IDs (for example 100) using

SELECT gen_id(my_generator, 100) FROM RDB$DATABASE

and then set them directly in your INSERT statement ("select ... from
rdb$database" returns you exactly one row). If you have other
applications that assume that ID is generated automatically, you can
modify your trigger so it does not generate new ID if your primary key
is not null.

But in general, such questions should be posted to IB-Support group,
you would get better feedback there.
