Method Detail

getInstance

public static UUIDGenerator getInstance()

Method used for accessing the singleton generator instance.

getRandomNumberGenerator

public java.util.Random getRandomNumberGenerator()

Method for getting the shared random number generator used for generating the UUIDs. This way the initialization cost is only taken once; access need not be synchronized (or in cases where it has to, SecureRandom takes care of it); it might even be good for getting really 'random' stuff to get shared access...

generateTimeBasedUUID

public UUID generateTimeBasedUUID(java.net.InetAddress addr)
