My colleague asks me an interesting problem about uuid library in python. In multicore system with multiprocessing, is it possible to get the duplicated uuid with uuid1?
I just check the RFC 4122, and I can't find anything about multicore environment. Python's uuid1 method generates the uuid with time stamp, mac address, and algorithm to gen random numbers. So, I think it's possible to get the duplicate uuid1 at the same time. What about you? Hope for your reply -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
