void nodes::catalogable::assign_unique_id

(

const unique_int &

new_id

)

id override method for objects that know their id after creation.

usually a catalogable object has a unique id from the beginning, but if one must be created prior to knowledge of the id, the old bogus id can be reset here. (a good policy to follow in this situation is to initially give the catalogable an id of zero.)
