Hi Allard,
If it weren’t for all the xml and json serializations, I would say byte[] is a better match for your goals then String.
Requirements:
- sorting, check (even better then String as charset issues disappear)
- hashing, check
- represent any sane identifier, definitely check
- serialization, check (for text based serializations less well then String, for any other serialization: better then String)
Regards,
Erik.
