Package that contains core (non-optional) Java UUID Generator API classes. Implementation classes can be found from under {@link com.fasterxml.uuid.impl}. These classes should be usable on JDK 1.4 and up, and have no external dependencies; except that any functionality that uses Ethernet-address discovery requires JDK 1.6.

The primary point is {@link com.fasterxml.uuid.Generators}, used to construct actual generators, based on method to use and some optional arguments.

Note: earlier JUG versions (up to 2.0) supported older JDKs (1.1); 1.4 is now needed since {@link java.util.UUID} is used as a core abstraction.
