How to choose the id generation strategy when using JPA and Hibernate

有些话、适合烂在心里 提交于 2019-11-26 03:07:28
I was going through Id generation section of the Hibernate reference guide and "java persistence with Hibernate" There are quite a few options available with Hibernate and JPA combined. I was looking for a further documentation on how to choose the specific id generation strategy. I am also looking for tipping points. For example, hilo strategy is expected to reduce contention. I am assuming there must be a trade off associated with this choice. I want to be educated about the trade offs. Is there any literature available? The API Doc are very clear on this. All generators implement the

问题 I\'m developing some desktop software for a client to resell. The client wants to restrict the software so that the registration code will be specific to one and only one computer. Besides using the MAC from the network card, does anyone have any other techniques (that work on both Windows and Mac OS X) for uniquely identifying a computer? 回答1: Another solution is to use a licensing technology with a dongle . This is a small device that plugs into USB or another I/O port on the host, and

问题 How do I create a GUID in Python that is platform independent? I hear there is a method using ActivePython on Windows but it\'s Windows only because it uses COM. Is there a method using plain Python? 回答1: The uuid module, in Python 2.5 and up, provides RFC compliant UUID generation. See the module docs and the RFC for details. [source] Docs: Python 2: http://docs.python.org/2/library/uuid.html Python 3: https://docs.python.org/3/library/uuid.html Example (working on 2 and 3): >>> import uuid

问题 I need to write a function that generates an id that is unique for a given machine running a Windows OS. Currently, I\'m using WMI to query various hardware parameters and concatenate them together and hash them to derive the unique id. My question is, what are the suggested parameters I should use? Currently, I\'m using a combination of bios\\cpu\\disk data to generate the unique id. And am using the first result if multiple results are there for each metric. However, I ran into an issue

How unique is UUID?

半世苍凉 提交于 2019-11-25 23:12:19
问题 How safe is it to use UUID to uniquely identify something (I\'m using it for files uploaded to the server)? As I understand it, it is based off random numbers. However, it seems to me that given enough time, it would eventually repeat it self, just by pure chance. Is there a better system or a pattern of some type to alleviate this issue? 回答1: Very safe: the annual risk of a given person being hit by a meteorite is estimated to be one chance in 17 billion, which means the probability is about

问题 How would it be possible to generate a random, unique string using numbers and letters for use in a verify link?

The address is available in Java 6 through through the following API: Java 6 Docs for Hardware Address I haven't used it in Java, but for other network identification applications it has been helpful. Bartosz Firyn The problem with MAC address is that there can be many network adapters connected to the computer. Most
