package xim
// ID represents a xim-id.
//
// It is a scheme used to generate quazimonotonicallyincreasingunique identifier.
//
// This can be used for anything that needs a unique-identifier. And its serialization should be safe to use as a file-name, or a directory-name.
//
// Example usage:
//
// var id xim.ID = xim.Generate()
//
// fmt.Println("xim-id =", id)
type ID struct {
value uint64
loaded bool
}
// ID is an option-type. Nothing returns the nothing value for the option-type.
//
// An example usage might be:
//
// if xim.Nothing() == id {
// //@TODO
// }

return ID{}
