Class type

An abstract unique identifier based on ordinary OCaml integers. Be careful, this may easily overflow on 32-bit platforms! Int63 is a safer choice for portability.

Int is useful when one is passing unique ids to C and needs a guarantee as to their representation. Int is always represented as an integer, while Int63 is either an integer (on 64-bit machines) or a pointer (on 32-bit machines).

The generated ids will therefore be fast to generate and not use much memory. If you do not have very stringent requirements on the size, speed, and ordering of your IDs then you should use the UUIDM library instead, which will give you a truly unique id, even amongst different runs and different machines.

Parameters

Signature

type t = private Base.Int.t

The sexps and strings look like integers.

include sig ... end
val bin_t : t Bin_prot.Type_class.t
val bin_read_t : t Bin_prot.Read.reader
val __bin_read_t__ : (Base.Int.t -> t) Bin_prot.Read.reader
val bin_reader_t : t Bin_prot.Type_class.reader
val bin_size_t : t Bin_prot.Size.sizer
val bin_write_t : t Bin_prot.Write.writer
val bin_writer_t : t Bin_prot.Type_class.writer
val bin_shape_t : Bin_prot.Shape.t
val t_of_sexp : Ppx_sexp_conv_lib.Sexp.t -> t
val sexp_of_t : t -> Ppx_sexp_conv_lib.Sexp.t
val typerep_of_t : t Typerep_lib.Std.Typerep.t
val typename_of_t : t Typerep_lib.Std.Typename.t

Caveat: values created with of_float, of_sexp, or of_string may be equal to previously created values.

val of_int_exn : int -> t
val to_int_exn : t -> int
val of_string : string -> t
val to_string : t -> string
val create : Base.Unit.t -> t

Always returns a value that is not equal to any other value created with create.
