IPv6 addresses not supported in UUIDGenerator
---------------------------------------------

                 Key: OPENJPA-2055
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-2055
             Project: OpenJPA
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: jdbc
    Affects Versions: 2.1.0
            Reporter: Heath Thomann
            Assignee: Heath Thomann
            Priority: Minor


UUIDGenerator class uses an IPv4 address as part of its seed when generating a 
UUID.  That is, the UUIDGenerator makes a call to InteAddress 'getAddress' 
method to get the address and assumes it returns a byte array of size 4 (the 
size of an IPv4 address).  However, in an environment which uses IPv6, 
'getAddress' can return a byte array of length 16.  UUIDGenerator needs to be 
updated to account for an IPv6 address.
