Milosz Tylenda commented on OPENJPA-1336:
-----------------------------------------
Rick, good job figuring that out.
My concern is that relying on the default encoding would make the UUID
behaviour inconsistent across environments. I think that the default encoding
is now something like "Windows-1252" on (English/USA) Windows and "UTF-8" on
most Linuxes and can be further changed by users. So an OpenJPA application may
stop working when switched its environment and finding the cause can be
difficult.
I would rather use a constant encoding ("ISO-8859-1" or any other but supported
by every JVM - there is a list in Javadoc) in the UUID generator. Would change
or narrow the range of generated byte values if required.
Another factor is the encoding of the database. If we start sending strings
containing "UTF-8" characters to a database which uses only one-byte encoding
(quite common), another error might occur. That suggests me using "ISO-8859-1"
as "the lowest common denominator" in the generator is a good idea.
A user manual update might be reasonable after resolving this.
Maybe I am missing something?
