This library generates Universally Unique IDs (UUIDs/GUIDs) as per RFC4122. Version 1 UUIDs are pretty much guaranteed to be unique as they are tied to the time and place of creation. Version 4 UUIDs have a very high probability of being unique, and do not leak identifiable information. Version 5 UUIDs are generated for a name in a namespace and that name and namespace combination will be the same every time it is generated. A v5 UUID has a very high probability of being unique within a namespace. Unlike utility.library's GetUniqueID() function, IDs generated by uuid.library will be unique across reboots. However they are not 32-bit values so do not fit the same use case. A command line tool is provided to generate UUIDs. It generates v1 UUIDs by default. Examples: Generate a v4 UUID: 1.> uuid ver 4 b1acd74e-7af4-4a6b-afcc-676466aa1231 Generate a v5 UUID using the previous v4 UUID as a namespace: 1.> uuid ver 5 b1acd74e-7af4-4a6b-afcc-676466aa1231 uuid.library d0fa129a-258c-505f-b561-3a36b3c21842 INSTALLATION Copy C to C:, Libs to Libs:, and SDK into the SDK if you have it installed. |
