I feel kind of embarrassed to ask, but could someone lead me the way on how to create an globally unique ID (such as for example d73e066c-cc88-4d66-be42-94dc091bb571) ?


In addition to Mike's response, remember that Google is your friend ... and so is cocoadev.com. :-)

http://www.cocoadev.com/index.pl?IDentifiers

  At the bottom of the page, there's this:

- (NSString *)uuid
{
        CFUUIDRef uuidRef = CFUUIDCreate(NULL);
        CFStringRef uuidStringRef = CFUUIDCreateString(NULL, uuidRef);
        CFRelease(uuidRef);
NSString *uuid = [NSString stringWithString:(NSString *) uuidStringRef];
        CFRelease(uuidStringRef);
        return uuid;
}
