UUID generation

Does anybody have a service that can generate
Universally Unique Identifier ?

// pipeline
IDataCursor pipelineCursor = pipeline.getCursor();
IDataUtil.put( pipelineCursor, “uuid”, com.wm.util.UUID.generate() );
pipelineCursor.destroy();

The above sample shouldn’t really be used as it relies on an internal utility class which may not be able in the future.

A sample HOWTO has been posted on Advantage that details another approach:

Hi!

Anyone knows if it´s possible generate an UUID by the 1 version (throw clock system)?
I think “pub.utils.generateUUID” generate by the 4 version (randomly).

Thanks!
