Description

UUIDs generated with Axis2 Util UUIDGenerator have the form

urn:uuid:16F37BAAB5ADE4B10F1255435492771

This is not conform to the Standard (ISO/IEC 11578:1996) and these UUID are rejected by e.g. Windows Clients etc.

A Standard conform UUID would look like:

urn:uuid:fddc7dc5-837b-443c-8ae7-7e715bab8666

Please fix this bug! Java includes a UUID Class, with produces Standard conform UUID of the form fddc7dc5-837b-443c-8ae7-7e715bab8666 for Webservice use one must only add urn:uudi: befor the generated Number
