Implement remaining corrections for OFUUID class (remove "FIXME" comments)
Added by Jörg Riesmeier almost 2 years ago.
Updated about 2 months ago.
Description
The implementation of the OFUUID class still contains a few "FIXME" comments. The remaining corrections should be implemented in order to allow the use in productive environments, e.g. for generating SOP Instance UID values.

- Related to Feature #362: Unterstützung von "UUID as UID" added
On most operating systems, we could significantly simplify the code because a built-in UUID generation function is available:
- Linux, MacOS, Solaris:
void uuid_generate(uuid_t out);
- Windows:
RPC_STATUS UuidCreate(UUID *Uuid);
- FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD:
void uuid_create(uuid_t *uuid, uint32_t *status);
Unfortunately, Android seems to have no UUID generation function accessible from C/C++.

- Target version changed from 3.7.2+ to 3.7.1
- % Done changed from 0 to 100
Reimplemented OFUUID based on RFC9562.
Generation of an OFUUID is refactored into an OFUUIDGenerator.
NOTE: The "FIXME" were not addressed! The current OFUUID represents a UUID of type/variant 7. The old one was type/variant 1.
- Status changed from New to Feedback
New implementation of OFUUID is now in place. The old OFUUID represented an UUID version 1. The current ones represent UUIDs with respect to RFC 9562, version 7. Other versions may be added by improving/enhancing OFUUIDGenerator.
The current OFUUID offers:
- monotonicity
- improved unguessability
- mitigation of security issues by not using a Media Access Control (MAC) address as version 1 does
- Status changed from Feedback to Closed
