I realise that having the value of getpid() and time() to hand is useful for forensic purposes, but a getpid():time():next_id++ will result in duplicates accross even small clusters.
Ah, I see :-) does mod_unique_id handle that?
/me sees a previous problem in a different form...
Hey Ben, wouldn't it be nice to be able to use the apr uuid functions now?
Umm. Yes? Of course, that's problematic in 1.3 - roll on 1.4!
As you know, the barrier is select(). I'm beginning to think we should just make the API for select, we know what its got to look like, and let Windoze catch up when it can. Or mark it experimental and subject to change.
Cheers,
Ben.
