Method Detail

getGuid

public static byte[] getGuid()

Gets a random GUID (using insecure random number generation favoring higher performance).

Returns

the GUID (not null and the size of an MD5 digest- 128 bits, or 16 bytes)

getGuid

public static byte[] getGuid(boolean bSecure)

Gets a random GUID.

Parameters

bSecure - if true, use cryptographically strong random number generation, else use the standard Random class to generate numbers

Returns

the GUID (not null and the size of an MD5 digest- 128 bits, or 16 bytes)

getGuidString

public static String getGuidString(boolean bSecure,
                                   boolean bIncludeDashes)

Gets a GUID in string form.

Parameters

bSecure - if true, use cryptographically strong random number generation, else use the standard Random class to generate numbers

bIncludeDashes - if true, include dashes in the string

Returns

the GUID (for example, C2FEEEAC-CFCD-11D1-8B05-00600806D9B6, or C2FEEEACCFCD11D18B0500600806D9B6 depending on whether or not dashes are included)

main

public static void main(String[] args)
                 throws Throwable

Throws

Throwable
