我想证明一个GUID在一个简单的测试程序中不是唯一的。
我原以为下面的代码会运行几个小时,但它不起作用。我该怎么做呢?
BigInteger begin = new BigInteger((long)0);
BigInteger end = new BigInteger("340282366920938463463374607431768211456",10); //2^128
for(begin; begin<end; begin++)
Console.WriteLine(System.Guid.NewGuid().ToString());
我用的是c#。
[Update:] As the comments below point out, newer MS GUIDs are V4 and do not use the MAC address as part of the GUID generation (I haven't seen any indication of a V5 implementation from MS though, so if anyone has a link confirming that let me know). WIth V4 though, time is still a factor though, and the odds against duplication of GUIDs remains so small as to be irrelevant for any practical usage. You certainly would not be likely to ever generate a duplicate GUID from just a single system test such as the OP was trying to do.
大多数答案都忽略了微软GUID实现的一个关键点。GUID的第一部分基于时间戳,另一部分基于网卡的MAC地址(如果没有安装网卡,则为随机数)。
如果我理解正确,这意味着复制GUID的唯一可靠方法是在多台机器上同时运行GUID生成,其中MAC地址是相同的,并且两个系统上的时钟在生成发生时处于相同的确切时间(时间戳是基于毫秒的,如果我理解正确的话)....即使如此,数字中还有很多其他的位是随机的,所以几率仍然很小。
对于所有实际目的,guid都是惟一的。
