I'm not sure whether it is a good feature to build in by default. An alternative could be to enable users to provide their own implementation, i.e. by making getValue non-final. Looking at that code, I don't understand why we even need: private short uuid = -1; as there is no code other than in getValue that changes the value, and that value can just be recreated everytime it is needed (as it is nothing more than a call to getPage().getAutoIndex()). Am I missing something here? WDYT? Eelco ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
