[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Re: Random conversation id's

[wsollers]

+1 for a UUID. Random does not guarantee that the id will be unique at the time it is generated so there is a chance for a collision. A UUID on the other hand alleviates that concern. 

Currently for monitoring purposes from an interceptor I use a UUID that I outject from conversation startup so that I can uniquely identify what sessions & principals are on my applications as well as what the state of their conversation / biz proc (outcomes exceptions etc...). 

Basically a self rolled admin console results. Not necessary in a regular web app but in a DOD Logistical system a requirement.

Just my 2 cents.
