JXTA Shell Extension for generating platform IDs
A simple JXTA Shell extension for generating useful platform IDs, typically occurring in the course of developing new pipes or services.
Usage and typical output are included in source comments.
A command line equivalent that allows the PeerID and PipeID to be based on an input PeerGroupID. Usage is in the source comments.
The utility is intended to be used not in a dynamic runtime situation, where IDs are created on the fly as needed, but as a tool to generate well-known IDs to be statically embedded in application code.

Looks useful. The only change I would make is to allow the peer and pipe ids to be generated using the current peer group rather than the newly generated value. I suspect that the “current group” mode of use is more common for those two ids.
