The QUuid class defines a Universally Unique Identifier (UUID).
<p>
<p> For objects or declarations that must be uniquely identified,
UUIDs (also known as GUIDs) are widely used in order to assign a
fixed and easy to compare value to the object or declaration. The
128-bit value of a UUID is generated by an algorithm that
guarantees that the value is unique.
<p> In Qt, UUIDs are wrapped by the QUuid struct which provides
convenience functions for handling UUIDs. Most platforms provide a
tool to generate new UUIDs, for example, uuidgen and guidgen.
<p> UUIDs generated by QUuid, are based on the <a href="#Version-enum">Random</a> version of the
<a href="#Variant-enum">DCE</a> (Distributed Computing Environment) standard.
<p> UUIDs can be constructed from numeric values or from strings, or
using the static <a href="#createUuid">createUuid</a>() function. They can be converted to a
string with <a href="#toString">toString</a>(). UUIDs have a <a href="#variant">variant</a>() and a <a href="#version">version</a>(),
and null UUIDs return TRUE from <a href="#isNull">isNull</a>().
<hr><h2>Member Type Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="Variant-enum"></a>QUuid::Variant</h3>
<p> This enum defines the variant of the UUID, which is the scheme
which defines the layout of the 128-bits value.
<ul>
<li><tt>QUuid::VarUnknown</tt> - Variant is unknown
<li><tt>QUuid::NCS</tt> - Reserved for NCS (Network Computing System) backward compatibility
<li><tt>QUuid::DCE</tt> - Distributed Computing Environment, the scheme used by QUuid
<li><tt>QUuid::Microsoft</tt> - Reserved for Microsoft backward compatibility (GUID)
<li><tt>QUuid::Reserved</tt> - Reserved for future definition
</ul>
<h3 class=fn><a name="Version-enum"></a>QUuid::Version</h3>
<p> This enum defines the version of the UUID.
<ul>
<li><tt>QUuid::VerUnknown</tt> - Version is unknown
<li><tt>QUuid::Time</tt> - Time-based, by using timestamp, clock sequence, and
MAC network card address (if available) for the node sections
<li><tt>QUuid::EmbeddedPOSIX</tt> - DCE Security version, with embedded POSIX UUIDs
<li><tt>QUuid::Name</tt> - Name-based, by using values from a name for all sections
<li><tt>QUuid::Random</tt> - Random-based, by using random numbers for all sections
</ul>
<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="QUuid"></a>QUuid::QUuid ()
</h3>
<p> Creates the null UUID {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}.
<h3 class=fn><a name="QUuid-2"></a>QUuid::QUuid ( uint l, ushort w1, ushort w2, uchar b1, uchar b2, uchar b3, uchar b4, uchar b5, uchar b6, uchar b7, uchar b8 )
</h3>
<p> Creates a UUID with the value specified by the parameters, <em>l</em>,
<em>w1</em>, <em>w2</em>, <em>b1</em>, <em>b2</em>, <em>b3</em>, <em>b4</em>, <em>b5</em>, <em>b6</em>, <em>b7</em>, <em>b8</em>.
<p> Example:
<pre>
// {67C8770B-44F1-410A-AB9A-F9B5446F13EE}
QUuid IID_MyInterface( 0x67c8770b, 0x44f1, 0x410a, 0xab, 0x9a, 0xf9, 0xb5, 0x44, 0x6f, 0x13, 0xee )
</pre>
<h3 class=fn><a name="QUuid-3"></a>QUuid::QUuid ( const <a href="quuid.html">QUuid</a> & orig )
</h3>
<p> Creates a copy of the QUuid <em>orig</em>.
<h3 class=fn><a name="QUuid-4"></a>QUuid::QUuid ( const <a href="qstring.html">QString</a> & text )
</h3>
Creates a QUuid object from the string <em>text</em>. The function can
only convert a string in the format
{HHHHHHHH-HHHH-HHHH-HHHH-HHHHHHHHHHHH} (where 'H' stands for a hex
digit). If the conversion fails a null UUID is created.
<h3 class=fn><a href="quuid.html">QUuid</a> <a name="createUuid"></a>QUuid::createUuid ()<tt> [static]</tt>
</h3>
<p> Returns a new UUID of <a href="#Variant-enum">DCE</a> variant, and <a href="#Version-enum">Random</a> type. The
UUIDs generated are based on the platform specific pseudo-random
generator, which is usually not a cryptographic-quality random
number generator. Therefore, a UUID is not guaranteed to be unique
cross application instances.
<p> On Windows, the new UUID is extremely likely to be unique on the
same or any other system, networked or not.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#variant">variant</a>() and <a href="#version">version</a>().
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="isNull"></a>QUuid::isNull () const
</h3>
Returns TRUE if this is the null UUID
{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}; otherwise returns FALSE.
<h3 class=fn><a name="operator-QString"></a>QUuid::operator QString () const
</h3>
<p> Returns the string representation of the uuid.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#toString">toString</a>().
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="operator!-eq"></a>QUuid::operator!= ( const <a href="quuid.html">QUuid</a> & other ) const
</h3>
<p> Returns TRUE if this QUuid and the <em>other</em> QUuid are different;
otherwise returns FALSE.
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="operator-lt"></a>QUuid::operator< ( const <a href="quuid.html">QUuid</a> & other ) const
</h3>
<p> Returns TRUE if this QUuid is of the same variant,
and lexicographically before the <em>other</em> QUuid;
otherwise returns FALSE.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#variant">variant</a>().
<h3 class=fn><a href="quuid.html">QUuid</a> & <a name="operator-eq"></a>QUuid::operator= ( const <a href="quuid.html">QUuid</a> & uuid )
</h3>
<p> Assigns the value of <em>uuid</em> to this QUuid object.
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="operator-eq-eq"></a>QUuid::operator== ( const <a href="quuid.html">QUuid</a> & other ) const
</h3>
<p> Returns TRUE if this QUuid and the <em>other</em> QUuid are identical;
otherwise returns FALSE.
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="operator-gt"></a>QUuid::operator> ( const <a href="quuid.html">QUuid</a> & other ) const
</h3>
<p> Returns TRUE if this QUuid is of the same variant,
and lexicographically after the <em>other</em> QUuid;
otherwise returns FALSE.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#variant">variant</a>().
<h3 class=fn><a href="qstring.html">QString</a> <a name="toString"></a>QUuid::toString () const
</h3>
<a href="qstring.html">QString</a> <a href="#toString">QUuid::toString</a>() const
<p> Returns the string representation of the uuid.
<h3 class=fn><a href="quuid.html#Variant-enum">QUuid::Variant</a> <a name="variant"></a>QUuid::variant () const
</h3>
<p> Returns the variant of the UUID.
The null UUID is considered to be of an unknown variant.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#version">version</a>().
<h3 class=fn><a href="quuid.html#Version-enum">QUuid::Version</a> <a name="version"></a>QUuid::version () const
</h3>
<p> Returns the version of the UUID, if the UUID is of the DCE
variant; otherwise returns VerUnknown.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#variant">variant</a>().

</h3>
Writes the uuid <em>id</em> to the datastream <em>s</em>.
<h3 class=fn><a href="qdatastream.html">QDataStream</a> & <a name="operator-gt-gt"></a>operator>> ( <a href="qdatastream.html">QDataStream</a> & s, <a href="quuid.html">QUuid</a> & id )
