Subject: Re: [xsl] String hashing code From: Abel Braaksma <abel.online@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 15 Dec 2007 15:38:14 +0100 |
True, though years of multithread programming has taught me a strong aversion to the inherent race condition in non-atomic test-and-create operations like this. It can't possibly be as big a risk as hash collision, but it doesn't stop me feeling any less dirty.
As always, perfection is impossible, so ultimately it comes down to how much effort I am willing to go to for that extra nine of reliability.
' VBScript to create a UUID: Set TypeLib = CreateObject("Scriptlet.TypeLib") NewGUID = TypeLib.Guid WScript.Echo(left(NewGUID, len(NewGUID)-2))
