/**

  A hack implementation of something similar to a DCE UUID 
  generator.  Generates unique 128-bit numbers based on the
  current machine's internet address, the current time, and
  a sequence number.  This implementation should be made to
  conform to the DCE specification. ("DEC/HP, Network Computing
  Architecture, Remote Procedure Call Runtime Extensions
  Specification, version OSF TX1.0.11," Steven Miller, July
  23, 1992.  This is part of the OSF DCE Documentation.
  Chapter 10 describes the UUID generation algorithm.)
  

Some known deficiencies:

However, the intention is that UUIDs generated from this class will be unique with respect to UUIDs generated by other DCE UUID generators. **/ public final class BasicUUIDFactory implements UUIDFactory { /* ** Fields of BasicUUIDFactory. */ private long majorId; // 48 bits only private long timemillis; public BasicUUIDFactory() { Object env = Monitor.getMonitor().getEnvironment(); if (env != null) { String s = env.toString(); if (s != null) env = s; majorId = ((long) env.hashCode()); } else { majorId = Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory(); } majorId &= 0x0000ffffffffffffL; resetCounters(); } // // Constants and fields for computing the sequence number. We started out with monotonically // increasing sequence numbers but realized that this causes collisions at the // ends of BTREEs built on UUID columns. So now we have a random number // generator. We generate these numbers using a technique from Knuth // "Seminumerical Algorithms," section 3.2 (Generating Uniform Random Numbers). // The formula is: // // next = ( (MULTIPLIER * current) + STEP ) % MODULUS // // Here // // MODULUS = int size. // MULTIPLIER = fairly close to the square root of MODULUS to force the // sequence number to jump around. satisifies the rule that // (MULTIPLIER-1) is divisible by 4 and by all the primes which // divide MODULUS. // STEP = a large number that keeps the sequence number jumping around. // must be relatively prime to MODULUS. // INITIAL_VALUE = a number guaranteeing that the first couple sequence numbers // won't be monotonically increasing. // // The sequence numbers should jump around and cycle through all numbers which fit in an int. private static final long MODULUS = ( 1L << 32 ); private static final long MULTIPLIER = ( ( 1L << 14 ) + 1 ); private static final long STEP = ( ( 1L << 27 ) + 1 ); private static final long INITIAL_VALUE = ( 2551218188L ); private long currentValue; /* ** Methods of UUID */ /** Generate a new UUID. @see UUIDFactory#createUUID **/ public synchronized UUID createUUID() { long cv = currentValue = ( ( MULTIPLIER * currentValue ) + STEP ) % MODULUS; if ( cv == INITIAL_VALUE ) { bumpMajor(); } int sequence = (int) cv; return new BasicUUID(majorId, timemillis, sequence); } /** Recreate a UUID previously generated UUID value. @see UUIDFactory#recreateUUID **/ public UUID recreateUUID(String uuidstring) { return new BasicUUID(uuidstring); } private void bumpMajor() { // 48 bits only majorId = (majorId + 1L) & 0x0000ffffffffffffL; if (majorId == 0L) resetCounters(); } private void resetCounters() { timemillis = System.currentTimeMillis(); currentValue = INITIAL_VALUE; } }
