Description: What changed Added UUIDGenerator utility class with two UUID generation strategies: UUIDv7 (default): Backported from Java 26 (JDK-8334015) with 48-bit millisecond timestamp, version/variant bits, and cryptographically strong random data Unique-Then-Time: Custom format with 64-bit unique MSB + 44-bit time component + 20-bit random LSB Configuration via system property jdk.sandbox.uuid.generator.mode with values v7 or unique-then-time. Static initialization ensures thread-safety and single configuration point for both Android and server environments. // Default (V7) UUID uuid = UUIDGenerator.generateUUID(); // Explicit UUIDv7 with timestamp UUID uuid = UUIDGenerator.ofEpochMillis(System.currentTimeMillis()); // Unique-then-time mode UUID uuid = UUIDGenerator.uniqueThenTime(uniqueMsb); // Configuration java -Djdk.sandbox.uuid.generator.mode=unique-then-time -jar app.jar Why this change is needed Provides time-ordered UUID generation (UUIDv7) for database efficiency and distributed systems, with fallback to alternative generation strategy when needed. System property configuration supports both server startup flags and Android Application.onCreate() initialization patterns. How were these changes tested 19 unit tests covering UUIDv7 generation, timestamp validation, monotonicity, thread safety (10 threads × 100 UUIDs), and unique-then-time generation 2 configuration tests verifying mode detection and consistency Demo application validated in both V7 and unique-then-time modes via system property CodeQL security scan: 0 vulnerabilities Checklist Code builds / passes tests (107 tests passing) New tests added if needed Update to use CODING_STYLE_LLM.md conventions (JEP 467 Markdown docs, exhaustive switch expressions, final vars, lambda logging) Documentation updated if needed (Demo + usage examples) AGENTS.md updated if appropriate (N/A - utility addition) Original prompt upgrade the current UUIDGenerator to use this logic backported from java26 ``` /// Creates a type 7 UUID (UUIDv7) {@code UUID} from the given Unix Epoch timestamp. /// /// The returned {@code UUID} will have the given {@code timestamp} in /// the first 6 bytes, followed by the version and variant bits representing {@code UUIDv7}, /// and the remaining bytes will contain random data from a cryptographically strong /// pseudo-random number generator. /// /// @APinote {@code UUIDv7} values are created by allocating a Unix timestamp in milliseconds /// in the most significant 48 bits, allocating the required version (4 bits) and variant (2-bits) /// and filling the remaining 74 bits with random bits. As such, this method rejects {@code timestamp} /// values that do not fit into 48 bits. /// /// Monotonicity (each subsequent value being greater than the last) is a primary characteristic /// of {@code UUIDv7} values. This is due to the {@code timestamp} value being part of the {@code UUID}. /// Callers of this method that wish to generate monotonic {@code UUIDv7} values are expected to /// ensure that the given {@code timestamp} value is monotonic. /// /// @param timestamp the number of milliseconds since midnight 1 Jan 1970 UTC, /// leap seconds excluded. /// /// @return a {@code UUID} constructed using the given {@code timestamp} /// /// @throws IllegalArgumentException if the timestamp is negative or greater than {@code (1L << 48) - 1} /// /// @SInCE Backport from Java 26 (JDK-8334015) public static UUID ofEpochMillis(long timestamp) { if ((timestamp >> 48) != 0) { throw new IllegalArgumentException("Supplied timestamp: " + timestamp + " does not fit within 48 bits"); } byte[] randomBytes = new byte[16]; LazyRandom.RANDOM.nextBytes(randomBytes); // Embed the timestamp into the first 6 bytes randomBytes[0] = (byte)(timestamp >> 40); randomBytes[1] = (byte)(timestamp >> 32); randomBytes[2] = (byte)(timestamp >> 24); randomBytes[3] = (byte)(timestamp >> 16); randomBytes[4] = (byte)(timestamp >> 8); randomBytes[5] = (byte)(timestamp); // Set version to 7 randomBytes[6] &= 0x0f; randomBytes[6] |= 0x70; // Set variant to IETF randomBytes[8] &= 0x3f; randomBytes[8] |= (byte) 0x80; // Convert byte array to UUID using ByteBuffer ByteBuffer buffer = ByteBuffer.wrap(randomBytes); long msb = buffer.getLong(); long lsb = buffer.getLong(); return new UUID(msb, lsb); } ``` then also add in this alternative optional way: /// ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ /// │ unique (64 bits) │ time+counter (44 bits) │ random (20 bits) │ /// └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ public static UUID uniqueThenTime(long uniqueMsb) { final int timeBits = 44; final int randomBits = 20; final int randomMask = (1 << randomBits) - 1; long timeCounter = timeCounterBits(); long msb = uniqueMsb; // Take the most significant 44 bits of timeCounter to preserve time ordering long timeComponent = timeCounter >> (64 - timeBits); // timeBits is 44 long lsb = (timeComponent << randomBits) | (getRandom().nextInt() & randomMask); return new UUID(msb, lsb); } it would be best current public static UUID generateUUID() can default to using the UUIDv7 approach yet have options to set it up be configurable at startup such as providing a system property to be able to flip it to the other method. have a think about how that is best done on both android and servers. ✨ Let Copilot coding agent set things up for you — coding agent works faster and does higher quality work when set up for your repo.
