[...] I use boost UUID as global unique identifiers and I do compare them in the total majority of usages. I do admit I can misuse the UUIDs concept so I am just curious what have the boost people intended the boost::uuid to be used for?..
Planned to use it as a key in a multi index container that uses shared memory allocators.. Or even as kind of property id for a tree like recursive property value db. But I dropped that idea, and now I am looking into something like boost::flyweight' (where ' stands for the ability to store the map and values inside certain shared memory segment) as a fast comparable identifier type for the property value db. regards Andreas
