> 6594730: UUID.getVersion() is only meaningful for Leach-Salz variant The `version` method is described in the javadoc as only being applicable to variant = 2 UUIDs. Changing the behavior to throw a `UnsupportedOperationException` is not a compatible change. There is very little value in adding the exception doing so might prevent existing applications from continuing to function. Repeating the limitation to version 2 to the javadoc of the version method as far as this request can go. Otherwise, please close the PR without integrating. ------------- Changes requested by rriggs (Reviewer). PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/1467
