Zopsters,
Is there a way to genereate globally unique object ids for use with a
Zope app. I notices the ZClasses has this sort of thing. I used to use
a counter property of the root folder and call an update with creation
of an object like so, <!--#call
"PARENTS[-2].manage_changeProperties(counter=counter+1)"-->, but now
with concurrency that's not *really* safe, plus this code doesn't seem
to work at a certain level in the hirearchy. It doesn't add to the
counter. Any suggestions on a glabally unique object ids.
