Alan Gates updated PIG-3257:
----------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
A simple UDF that calls Java's UUID.getRandomUUID() function. I believe this
could be done with a combination of the piggybank ToString function and using
StringInvoker for UUID.getRandomUUID, but this seems like a useful and simple
enough thing to just build in.
> Add unique identifier UDF
