Subject: Re: How to compute the address of an object?
Use Variant.Hash. I think it's documented to return distinct values for
distinct objects.
It does, but I think it's very slow (for what I understood).
Rather than, I would ask if the unique ID must still be unique after it has
been saved in a database / file, and then loaded back.
Actually, I cannot think to a different way to get an unique ID that is not
too slow. If you want an ID that is persistent after many runs of the
program, then there is a solution.
