Subject: make rows unique across db's without UUIP on windows?

 

Considering the discussions on the pgsql-bugs user list regarding ossp-uuip: Re: BUG #4167: When generating UUID using UUID-OSSP module, UUIDs are not unique on Windows,

 

What is the normal solution in pgsql-land for making a serious number of rows unique across multiple databases?

 

I mean particularly databases of different types (every type) used at various places (everywhere) on all platforms (even MS[TM])? You know… a UNIVERSAL id?

 

I gotta have it! I’m doing distributed list management.

 

Anyone got a real good, dependable, easy, and universally manageable solution?

 

Thanks,

 

Kimball Johnson
