How to generate a unique global identifier?

I was sure that this would be covered somewhere, but couldn't find it.  I was wondering if there is any standard way to create some sort of unique identifier, a little in the world?  I'm trying to collect data from my application and I try to avoid collecting everything that would be personally identifiable to a particular device.  On other platforms, there is the notion of a GUID.  Is something like this provided out of the box?  At the present time, the best thing that I came up with is cat a bunch of long random set that seems kind of hoaky.

Thanks for reading this,

  • R12 - how to generate a unique Journal for several bills entry

    Hello

    We observed that in R12, when newspapers are transferred to GL SLA, separate Journal header is created for each invoice AP. This will affect huge negative performance on our existing custom programs.

    What we want is when we transfer reviews from AP to GL at end of day every day, so don't that a single Journal Header(like in 11i) generate for all bills.

    In addition, what we have observed is by default the name of the Journal header is in the following format

    "AE_HEADER_ID +" "+ purchase invoices + ' ' + SOBCurreny.

    Example of log name is «5250003 purchase invoices USD»

    We are not sure weather that a separate Journal header is created due to the default of naming convenstion. Is what is happening because, by default, the AE_HEADER_ID is in the name of the header of the Journal? If we modify the subledger accounting method and remove the AE_HEADER_ID the name of the entry of newspaper Oracle generates a signle Journal entry on all invoices?

    Please let me know if anyone has an idea on how to achieve this.


    Thank you

    This 8-digit value is always unique? If this is the case, your answer is 100% correct.

    Can be yes or no. Please follow link below:
    http://www.Oracle-base.com/articles/9i/UUID-9i.php

    In the above link, Tim has created a function named new_uuid. In this function, he used a conversion_api package. You can get the code for conversion_api from the given link. After creating the function, he showed a demo of a UUID table what unique constraint. Then it adds 100000 rows in the table. If there is no unique constraint occurs violation, it means that you have 100000 unique random-ed string, which can be used in the password. Whenever you want to assign a password, simply, you can say something like this:

    Select TRUNC (DBMS_RANDOM. VALUE (1,100000)) twice;

    Suppose that it is up to you 93068, this means that you will read 93068th row in the table of the UUID, recover the password for example column of the table of the UUID uuid and then just delete the UUID where uuid = "the password you have."

  • How to generate Unique Cache keys?

    I am trying to improve the performance of my ColdFusion 10 application by better use of caching.  I have a CFC of DAO/Gateway special interviewing a particular database.  I added the query caching the query in this CFC and it made a huge difference.

    As this database is out of my control changes/updates, I need to be able to open the purge of the request (s) for this database only.  I don't think the built-in queries to ehcache ColdFusion cache allows granular control of hot flashes - in Administrator of CF that you can pretty well rinse only all of the cache.

    So I thought that the only solution was to create my own region of cache that is associated with this database and manually cache the queries in this region.  Then I can rinse just this region without impact on other queries cached.

    So here's my problem: I think internally, ColdFusion implements the query cache using a hash of the generated SQL code.  I think I'm going to store my queries in the cache with a key that hashes the input parameters.  The Hash() built-in function would be an appropriate mechanism to create cache keys that are unique for each combination of parameters?  Does it matter what algorithm to use with Hash()?

    Thank you

    -Carl V.

    I guess I'll answer my own question.  I tested using Hash() using the MD5 algorithm, and it seems that it generates repeatable unique values for each combination of parameters.  I did this:

    1. Create a Struct containing pairs key / value parameters (name of the parameter, the parameter value).
    2. Convert the structure to a string using SerializeJSON().
    3. Chop the string using the Hash() with MD5.

    This seems to be what I was hoping.  I would still get a confirmation that it is a good approach, or if there are better ways to do it.

  • is there any function in the osb to generate a unique number in proxy

    is there any function in the osb to generate a unique number in proxy

    FN - bea: uuid()

    The function fn - bea: uuid() returns a universal unique identifier. The function has the following signature:

    FN - bea: uuid() as XS: String

    You can use this function in the pipeline of proxy to generate a unique identifier. You can insert the unique identifier that is generated in an XML document in the form of element. You are unable to generate a unique identifier to the system variable. You can use this to edit a message payload.

    For example, suppose you want to generate a unique identifier to add it to a message for follow-up purposes. You can use this function to generate a unique identifier. The function returns a string that you can add it to the SOAP header.

    Hi
     
    Yep, use Index Array as Gerd says. Also, using the context help ( + h) and looking through the array palette will help you get an understanding of what each VI does.
     
    This is fundamental LabVIEW stuff, perhaps you'd be better spending some time going through the basics.

  • How to generate a field real-time tiara?

    Hello

    I tried a lot of things, but it is not working properly.

    I logfiles with the data of one ore more test ports. All entries in log file has a time stamp.  Timestamps are not equidistant. I can read the log file and get a table 1 d (n long elements) of the timestamps and a table 2D data (n x m elements m test ports).

    How to generate a report in the tiara with the time that x-axis it? The difficult is, I can't transfer the timescale to tiara.

    I could first convert timestamps double and double transfer al. This does not solve my problem. The tiara-channel resulting if of type 'float' and not 'time '. I need a script to swich the channel to 'time'. I see no solution to load a layout of report (TDR), to call a script to transfer data from additional text.

    Hello bohm,.

    When you write a channel timestamp in a PDM file, tiara automatically identifies it as a weather channel. So when you export the right data, you will get good results ;-).

    To illustrate this, I wrote an example VI: it creates two TDMS files with random timestamps and displays then the two files into a single report of DIAdem. I hope that you find it useful.

    If so, valuable local traffic differs within the subnet of the interface, then pings will not work if you use 'ping x.x.x.x inside'. You can only run packet tracer or create live traffic to display counters of encryption increases.
