Jeremy Bauer updated OPENJPA-545:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: OPENJPA-545.patch

Attached is OPENJPA-545.patch, which provides type 4 UUID generators using standard Java 5 UUID support.  Two new generator types are defined to provide this support, "uuid-type4-string" and "uuid-type4-hex".  Also included in the patch are jUnits and documentation updates.

Please review and provide comments.  Thanks!

> From the thread on the dev mailing list when we were discussing whether to get rid of the JDK 1.4 requirement...
> "If we do down this path, we should look at replacing (or enhancing) our UUID implementation with the UUID class that is now part of JDK 5 (http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/UUID.html).  I just heard from a user that the random number version of the UUID (version 4) provides for more efficient index processing.  This is part of the Java implementation.  We should take a look at that as an alternative."
> Thus, this sub-task...
