Container class for standard ObjectIdGenerator implementations:

NOTE: PropertyGenerator applicability is limited in one case: it can only be used on polymorphic base types (ones indicated using JsonTypeInfo or default typing) via class annotations: property annotation will fail due to lack of access to property, needed to determine type of Object Id for deserialization. This limitation may be lifted in future versions but it is the limitation at least up to and including Jackson 2.9.

Implementation that just uses UUIDs as reliably unique identifiers: downside is that resulting String is 36 characters long.

One difference to other generators is that scope is always set as Object.class (regardless of arguments): this because UUIDs are globally unique, and scope has no meaning.

Implementation that will accept arbitrary (but unique) String Ids on deserialization, and (by default) use random UUID generation similar to UUIDGenerator for generation ids.

This generator is most useful for cases where another system creates String Ids (of arbitrary structure, if any), and Jackson only needs to keep track of id-to-Object mapping. Generation also works, although if UUIDs are always used, UUIDGenerator is a better match as it will also validate ids being used.
