Hello list,
I am in a need of GUID generator but it seems that PHP doesn't have this as
a built-in feature.
I looked at http://pear.php.net <http://pear.php.net/> and
http://pecl.php.net <http://pecl.php.net/> but found nothing suitable
there.
I really need "true" unique identifiers - md5() hash is not OK because of
the "birthday paradox".
Can anyone recommend a way for solving this trouble?
Have a great day,
Denis S Gerasimov
