Uniquely Identifying Items

Hey all,

I'm making an addon for Classic and need a way to uniquely identify soul shards Warlocks create in their bags. I've read through the API and couldn't really find anything. The best solution I came up with was using the bag number and slot number to map to corresponding soul shards.

This approach however ran into its own issue. I would like to use the tooltip widget to hover over a soul shard and display information unique to that specific soul shard. The problem is the tooltip functions provide no way of getting the bag index/slot index of the item you're hovering over.

I could get this information if the user selects (locks) a soul shard from the inventory, but that's not the solution I'm looking for.

Thanks!
