Package org.archive.uid

package org.archive.uid
A unique ID generator. Default is UUIDGenerator. To use another ID Generator, set the System Property org.archive.uid.GeneratorFactory.generator to point at an alternate implementation of RecordIDGenerator.

TODO

  • MIME boundaries have upper-bound of 70 characters total including 'blank line' (CRLFCRLF) and two leading hyphens. Add to RecordIDGenerator interface an upper-bound on generated ID length.
  • Add example of an actionable uid generator: e.g. http://archive.org/UID-SCHEME/ID where scheme might be UUID and an ID might be f9472055-fbb6-4810-90e8-68fd39e145a6;type=metadata or, using ARK: http://archive.org/ark:/13030/f9472055-fbb6-4810-90e8-68fd39e145a6;type=metadata.
