Declared in: EOControl/EOGlobalID.h
Assigns a world-wide unique ID of the format:
< Sequence [2], ProcessID [2] , Time [4], IP Addr [4] >
buffer should have space for EOUniqueBinaryKeyLength (12) bytes.
Initializes a newly allocated EOTemporaryGlobalID as a unique instance. The returned id
contains a byte string obtained from assignGloballyUniqueBytes:
that's guaranteed to be unique network-wide. As a result, EOTemporaryGlobalIDs can be safely passed between processes and machines while still preserving global uniqueness.
