note 69164 added to function.uniqid

Here is the correct version of a function generating a pseudo-random UUID according to RFC 4122: <?php function uuid() { return sprintf( '%04x%04x-%04x-%04x-%04x-%04x%04x%04x', mt_rand( 0, 0xffff ), mt_rand( 0, 0xffff ), mt_rand( 0, 0xffff ), mt_rand( 0, 0x0fff ) | 0x4000, mt_rand( 0, 0x3fff ) | 0x8000, mt_rand( 0, 0xffff ), mt_rand( 0, 0xffff ), mt_rand( 0, 0xffff ) ); } ?> The version and variant is located at the MSB (most significant bits) of the time_hi_and_version and clock_seq_hi_and_reserved fields, not the LSB as in dholmes version. ---- Server IP: 195.136.184.34 Probable Submitter: 195.82.172.68 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.uniqid.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/69164 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69164/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69164/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69164/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69164/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69164/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69164/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69164 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/69164 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
