The original coding in contrib/uuid-ossp created and destroyed a uuid_t object (or, in some cases, even two of them) each time it was called. This is not the intended usage: you're supposed to keep the uuid_t object around so that the library can cache its state across uses. (Other UUID libraries seem to keep equivalent state behind-the-scenes in static variables, but OSSP chose differently.) Aside from being quite inefficient, creating a new uuid_t loses knowledge of the previously generated UUID, which in theory could result in duplicate V1-style UUIDs being created on sufficiently fast machines. On at least some platforms, creating a new uuid_t also draws some entropy from /dev/urandom, leaving less for the rest of the system. This seems sufficiently unpleasant to justify back-patching this change. |

The PostgreSQL contrib tree --------------------------- This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their usefulness. User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML documentation. Most items can be built with `gmake all' and installed with `gmake install' in the usual fashion, after you have run the `configure' script in the top-level directory. Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or types. In these cases, after you have installed the files you need to register the new entities in the database system by running the commands in the supplied .sql file. For example, $ psql -d dbname -f module.sql See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this procedure.
