Subject: make rows unique across db's without UUIP on windows?
Considering the discussions on the pgsql-bugs user list regarding ossp-uuip: Re: BUG #4167: When generating UUID using UUID-OSSP module, UUIDs are not unique on Windows,
What is the normal solution in pgsql-land for making a serious number of rows unique across multiple databases?
I mean particularly databases of different types (every type) used at various places (everywhere) on all platforms (even MS[TM])? You know… a UNIVERSAL id?
I gotta have it! I’m doing distributed list management.
Anyone got a real good, dependable, easy, and universally manageable solution?
Thanks,
Kimball Johnson
