Amazon SimpleDB: Define auto_increment

I am trying to define auto_increment at properties of an attribute in my domain.

But I couldn't do it anywhere. Is that possible? If so, where can I check how to do it?

You'll have to code your own auto increment feature. Take a look at conditional puts. If you're looking to build a unique identifier rather than a counter, keep UUIDs in mind as they're much easier and more efficient than hitting the database unnecessarily.

An below example shows you can auto increment the attribute names where value is greater then 1024, that is to be uploaded. 

if (fieldvalue.length() >= 1024) {
                                int index = 1;
                                while (fieldvalue.length() >= 1000 && vlist.size() < 254) {
                                    String value = new String(fieldvalue.substring(0, 1000).getBytes("UTF-8"), "UTF-8");

                                    ItemAttribute objItemAttribute = new ItemAttribute(fieldname+index, value, fieldreplace.booleanValue()); 
                                    vlist.add(objItemAttribute);
                                    fieldvalue = new String(fieldvalue.substring(1000).getBytes("UTF-8"), "UTF-8");
                                    index++;
                                }
                            }
