Sivakatirswami, the question is how unique do you need it to be - this is not a simple question :)

if you need it to be unique only in your own domain (as it were), then your function is probably fine, but if it needs to be unique in the wider world, then maybe not.

The little library ( http://www.futility.co.uk/futsoft/revolutionstuff.html ) that I wrote follows the relevant RFC - so, in theory, it's output has 'wider' uniqueness - the subject is quite involved, when you get into it.

Best Mark


I love to follow in the trails blazed by the great ones before me. :-)
I downloaded your lib and will probably use the time-based algorithm.

Thanks!
