<p>
<code>ObjectDefintion</code> objects share a global namespace in the
registry. They share this aspect with LDAP/X.500 attributes. In these
standards the OSI Object Identifier (OID) is used to uniquely identify
object classes. If such an OID exists, (which can be requested at several
standard organisations and many companies already have a node in the
tree) it can be returned here. Otherwise, a unique id should be returned
which can be a java class name (reverse domain name) or generated with a
GUID algorithm. Note that all LDAP defined object classes already have an
OID associated. It is strongly advised to define the object classes from
existing LDAP schemes which will give the OID for free. Many such schemes
exist ranging from postal addresses to DHCP parameters.
