Hi there, here my review.
Please always state in your review, whether you think the library should be accepted as a Boost library!
yes, please.
- What is your evaluation of the design? The design is simple and easy to understand. The learning curve is expectically very low.
- What is your evaluation of the implementation?
Somebody else on this list was mentioning of a conflicting license issue with sha1.hpp. This should be resolved before adding this lib to boost. Same as Dan Nuffer I would like to see a way to change the default random number generator.
- What is your evaluation of the documentation? Good enough.
- What is your evaluation of the potential usefulness of the library? I use it for over half a year now and haven't created the a equal guid yet. ;-)
- Did you try to use the library? With what compiler? Did you have any problems?
Yes. I'm using it at work already.
- How much effort did you put into your evaluation? A glance? A quick reading? In-depth study?
I'm using the lib for a while already and I have nothing to complain. The learning curve really isn't that huge either.
- Are you knowledgeable about the problem domain?
No. All I need is way to generate ids that are unique. Thanks for another useful lib. Christian
