[flexcoders] guid/uuid generation

[Sean McKibben]

Is anyone aware of a guid generation system for flex/flash? I'm building a system which does quite a bit on the client before a trip to the server, and it needs to make some references amongst objects that the server can understand, so a real guid generator would be the best way to do that. I know I could probably use math.random() to generate a random number and try to use that as a guid, but this is an enterprise app here, and there are rules for guids which we'd need to conform to. Ideally, the the UUID version 5, using SHA-1 would be my preference. Anything at least pretty robust which could come up with the format, "{3F2504E0-4F89-11D3-9A0C-0305E82C3301}" would be useful. Anyone else come across a solution for this?
