Hi,
In ovirt-engine code we have Guid and NGuid objects. Guid is extends NGuid and also NGuid class has method getValue() which should return Guid. As for me these two classes are look like the same and I don't see to much differences between them. My proposal is to remove NGuid and move it functionality to Guid (Because of Guid is much more common)
i agree, but we need to take another step forward and allow Guid to be null (as it should) and not assume its EMPTY or have a value (i'm pretty sure we have this assumption in many places)
Hi, And for the new people out here... why not kill both and use plain standard java UUID[1]? I think we should kill compat, I don't see any value in fixing anything about it while leaving it intact. Regards, Alon Bar-Lev. [1] http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/util/UUID.html
