UUIDs are (I believe) very common in messaging settings, and are used to identify nodes, messages, etc. Having one way of generating them, that works the same way across all bindings, would be useful, in my opinion. Perhaps we could have zmq_util_XXX() functions and/or a zmq::util namespace where UUID functions (as well as the timer and sleeping functions, and perhaps the version function) are stashed. -- Gonzalo Diethelm ----------------------------------------- Declaración de confidencialidad: Este Mensaje esta destinado para el uso de la o las personas o entidades a quien ha sido dirigido y puede contener información reservada y confidencial que no puede ser divulgada, difundida, ni aprovechada en forma alguna.
