This module provides a framework for generating UUIDs (Universally
|
||||
Unique Identifiers, also known as GUIDs (Globally Unique Identifiers). A
|
||||
UUID is 128 bits long, and is guaranteed to be different from all other
|
||||
UUIDs/GUIDs generated until 3400 A.D. UUIDs were originally used in the
|
||||
Network Computing System (NCS) and later in the Open Software
|
||||
Foundation's (OSF) Distributed Computing Environment. Currently many
|
||||
different technologies rely on UUIDs to provide unique identity for
|
||||
various software components, Microsoft COM/DCOM for instance, uses GUIDs
|
||||
very extensively to uniquely identify classes, applications and
|
||||
components across network-connected systems.
