)

void ACE_Utils::UUID_Generator::generate_UUID	(	UUID &	uuid,
		ACE_UINT16	version = 0x0001,
		u_char	variant = 0x80
	)

Format timestamp, clockseq, and nodeID into an UUID of the specified version and variant. For generating UUID's with thread and process ids use variant=0xc0

UUID * ACE_Utils::UUID_Generator::generate_UUID	(	ACE_UINT16	version = 0x0001,
		u_char	variant = 0x80
	)

Format timestamp, clockseq, and nodeID into a VI UUID. For generating UUID's with thread and process ids use variant=0xc0

ACE_SYNCH_MUTEX * ACE_Utils::UUID_Generator::lock

(

void

)

The locking strategy prevents multiple generators from accessing the UUID_state at the same time. Get the locking strategy.

void ACE_Utils::UUID_Generator::lock	(	ACE_SYNCH_MUTEX *	lock,
		bool	release_lock
	)

Set a new locking strategy and return the old one.

void ACE_Utils::UUID_Generator::get_timestamp

(

UUID_Time &

timestamp

)

[private]

Obtain a UUID timestamp. Compensate for the fact that the time obtained from getSystem time has a resolution less than 100ns.

Obtain a new timestamp. If UUID's are being generated too quickly the clock sequence will be incremented

void ACE_Utils::UUID_Generator::get_timestamp_and_clocksequence	(	UUID_Time &	timestamp,
		ACE_UINT16 &	clockSequence
	)			[private]

Obtain a UUID timestamp and clock sequence. Compensate for the fact that the time obtained from getSystem time has a resolution less than 100ns.

timestamp

Obtain the system time in UTC as a count of 100 nanosecond intervals since 00:00:00.00, 15 October 1582 (the date of Gregorian reform to

ACE_Time_Value is in POSIX time, seconds since Jan 1, 1970. UUIDs use time in 100ns ticks since 15 October 1582. The difference is: 15 Oct 1582 - 1 Jan 1600: 17 days in Oct, 30 in Nov, 31 in Dec + 17 years and 4 leap days (1584, 88, 92 and 96) 1 Jan 1600 - 1 Jan 1900: 3 centuries + 73 leap days ( 25 in 17th cent. and 24 each in 18th and 19th centuries) 1 Jan 1900 - 1 Jan 1970: 70 years + 17 leap days. This adds up, in days: (17+30+31+365*17+4)+ (365*300+73)+ (365*70+17) or 122192928000000000U (0x1B21DD213814000) 100 ns ticks.

Get the time of day, convert to 100ns ticks then add the offset.
