[Discussion] _localId generated via counter

[dplewis]

I posted a comment here about it.

There is currently an issue with a offline caching of objects. If an app (web app) reinitializes the SDK, the localId resets. The means any offline cached objects may have the same localId as another object.

iOS and android uses some form of generated long int (~8 bytes) which is then cached to the disk.

I figures we could replace the counter with a UUID for localId or use something similar to it and avoid collision.

What do you think?

@dplewis Updated my post here with my successful experiment using a UUID for localIDs.
