UUID parsing for Java 1.4.x

I'm looking for an UUID parser class for Java 1.4.x and earilier.  I see that 1.5 has it, but since it is pre-release I can't upgrade to 1.5.  Any recommendations?

I don't have a recommendation, just a question.  I didn't realize jdk 1.5 had UUIDs.  Do you mean they have classes to generate them for you?  That would be useful.  Which package is it in?

I need something parse an string version of the ID, store it, provide compare operators, and generate them. 

I just wrote a regex to parse them.  Guess that's good enough.  I just thought there would be a free one out there.
