Get ID of last inserted document in a mongoDB w/ Java driver

Question

Is there an easy way to get the ID (ObjectID) of the last inserted document of a mongoDB instance using the Java driver?

Answer 1

I just realized you can do this:

BasicDBObject doc = new BasicDBObject( "name", "Matt" );
collection.insert( doc );
ObjectId id = (ObjectId)doc.get( "_id" );
