Abstract
Disclosed herein is a framework for generating and providing self-distinguishable identifiers as to users. In accordance with one aspect, an entry is retrieved from an object, wherein the entry includes one or more fields. The one or more fields may be concatenated to create a concatenated string. The framework may then determine if the concatenated string is unique from other concatenated strings in a listing of the object. If the concatenated string is determined to be not unique, a unique sequence identifier may be added to the concatenated string.
Claims20
A method that generates a unique self-distinguishable identifier, the method comprising:
- retrieving an entry from an object, wherein the entry includes one or more fields;
- concatenating the one or more fields to create a concatenated string;
- determining if the concatenated string is unique from other concatenated strings in a listing of the object;
- and
- if the concatenated string is determined to be not unique, adding a unique sequence identifier to the concatenated string.
One or more computer-readable media storing processor-executable instructions that when executed cause one or more processors to perform operations that generates unique self-distinguishable identifiers, the operations comprising:
- initiating a dictionary;
- fetching an entry from a table of the dictionary;
- placing in order one or more fields of the entry;
- and
- concatenating the one or more fields of the entry to create a self-distinguishable identifier.
A system that facilities generating self-distinguishable identifiers, the system comprising:
- an input configured to receive one or more entries that are added to an object;
- a sub-system configured to concatenate fields of the one or more entries to generate the self-distinguishable identifiers, to determine if the self-distinguishable identifiers are unique and to add a sequence identifier if the self-distinguishable identifiers are not unique.
