Class Base58UUID

java.lang.Object

com.chrylis.codec.base58.Base58UUID

@Cacheable(value="base58uuid")
public class Base58UUID
extends Object

Convenience wrapper for working with UUIDs in Base58. Since the Base58 operations are fairly expensive computationally, this class is annotated with Spring's Cacheable using the cache named base58uuid. This annotation is contained in the spring-context artifact, and in its absence at runtime, the classloader will simply ignore it.
