Machine UUID (was Re: Creating a unique number / ID in Omnis Studio_

[Mike Matthews - Omnis]

You are not mistaken Stephen.

But adding them together stops HD swap out I guess.  So add them all together and you get a unique setup ID.

Our Glorious HMCR seem to be happy now, phew :)

Thanks

Hope to be corrected if wrong but my understanding is that:

a) The boot hard drive id  is unique world wide
b)  The MAC address is unique worldwide
c) The SPID is unique for the current database session.

Kind Regards,

Hi Mike,

Apparently the format of the OW3.$gethardwareid() I am using is not good enough ..


Submit a UUID which is 128 bits or 32 hex characters long

# Gov-Client-Device-ID: beec798b-b366-47fa-b1f8-92cede14a1ce

# Omnis version : 69CW-EQK5-B92I-YYY5-69CD-7MK5-BY2Q-7XKZ

So how do you convert the OW3 result into either a 128 bits or 32 hex characters long string?


This will give you a 32-character hex string based on the machine ID.

       Calculate uuid as OXML.$md5hexdigest(OW3.$gethardwareid())
