The Windows UUIDs are a helluva better than ours in terms of uniqueness. We compensate, but Windows does a much better job. Because we have a #ifdef for Windows, we keep the UUID code within APR. Truthfully, I'm beginning to think it would be best to just move all the crap over to apr-util and have one little #ifdef in the uuid code. Cheers, -g -- Greg Stein, http://www.lyra.org/
