[kepler-dev] unique id generation

[Michal Owsiak]

In fact I am looking for some way of creating unique values that can be 
used for file names.

UUID class generates unique values that can be easily converted to strings.

In fact, I have my own actor that generates unique ids using UUID class, 
however I am looking for something that is built into Kepler.

Cheers

Michal
