Build a UUID from its constituent members (advanced constructor). 
 | 
UUID(long lDatetime,
    InetAddress addr,
    int nPort,
    int nCount)

 | 
UUID(String s)
Construct a UUID from a String. 
 | 
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description | 
|---|---|
int | 
compareTo(Object o)
Compares this object with the specified object for order. 
 | 
boolean | 
equals(Object o)
Determine if two UUIDs are equal. 
 | 
byte[] | 
getAddress()
Determine the internet address of the host that generated the UUID
 instance. 
 | 
int | 
getCount()
Determine the "counter" portion of the UUID that ensures that two UUIDs
 generated at the same exact time by the same process are unique. 
 | 
int | 
getPort()
Determine the port portion of the UUID. 
 | 
long | 
getTimestamp()
Determine the date/time value that the UUID instance was generated. 
 | 
int | 
hashCode()
Determine a hash code for the UUID object. 
 | 
boolean | 
isAddressIncluded()
This is true if the IP address is a real IP address. 
 | 
boolean | 
isGenerated()
This is true if the UUID was generated, and false if it was built. 
 | 
static void | 
main(String[] asArgs)
Allow UUID identifiers to be generated or parsed at the command line. 
 | 
void | 
readExternal(DataInput in)
Restore the contents of this object by loading the object's state from
 the passed DataInput object. 
 | 
void | 
readExternal(ObjectInput in)
Read this object from an ObjectInputStream. 
 | 
void | 
readExternal(PofReader in)
Restore the contents of a user type instance by reading its state using
 the specified PofReader object. 
 | 
byte[] | 
toByteArray()
Convert the UUID to a byte array of 32 bytes. 
 | 
String | 
toString()
Convert the UUID to a printable String. 
 | 
void | 
writeExternal(DataOutput out)
Save the contents of this object by storing the object's state into
 the passed DataOutput object. 
 | 
void | 
writeExternal(ObjectOutput out)
Write this object to an ObjectOutputStream. 
 | 
void | 
writeExternal(PofWriter out)
Save the contents of a POF user type instance by writing its state using
 the specified PofWriter object.
