Jacques,
Here's an example of generating a uuid using the userno and time. Note
the line wrap on the "RESULT =" line:
EQU TD$UTCSECS LIT '(SYSTEM(99))' ; * seconds since 1970-01-01
EQU TD$MILLIS LIT '((SYSTEM(12) * 1000) "R%3")'
ERRCODE = DIGEST("MD5", @USERNO:TD$UTCSECS:TD$MILLIS, 1, RESULT)
RESULT = DOWNCASE(OCONV(RESULT, "MX"))"########-####-####-####-############"
DISPLAY RESULT
END

Hello,
I wanted to know if a Named common is visible from every session on the server ?
I need to generate UUID's Universe doesn't have a function that does this but
Unix has a : uuidgen program I can execute to capture UUID's.
The problem is that some of our programs run within a TRANSACTION block and
cannot execute Unix shell commands within a TRANSACTION block.
I though that I would have a phantom process that could run in background
reserving UUID's for the different users and store this in a named common.
I need to avoid using a file for this as to avoid an I/O bottleneck for the
same record key.
It has been years since I've used named commons. I though that the definition
was something like this:
COM /UUID/ UUID
The compiler accepts this definition and I can feed the UUID variable within my
phantom process but the other process on a different port & user that attempts
to read it is unable to do so. It has the value zero.
If named commons don't do this, is there some kind of global variable I can set
to do this ?
Any ideas ?
