Detailed Description

A universally unique 128-bit identifier.

This class generates very random unique numbers. It's vanishingly unlikely that two identical UUIDs would ever be created by chance. The values are formatted to meet the RFC 4122 version 4 standard.

The class includes methods for saving the ID as a string or as raw binary data.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Uuid::Uuid

(

)

Creates a new unique ID, compliant with RFC 4122 version 4.

Uuid::~Uuid ( )

noexcept

Destructor.

Uuid::Uuid ( const Uuid &  )

noexcept

Creates a copy of another UUID.

Uuid::Uuid

(

const String &

uuidString

)

Creates an ID from an encoded string version.

See also

toString

Uuid::Uuid ( const uint8 *  rawData )

noexcept

Creates a UUID from a 16-byte array.

getRawData

Member Function Documentation

Uuid& Uuid::operator= ( const Uuid &  )

noexcept

Copies another UUID.

bool Uuid::isNull ( ) const

noexcept

Returns true if the ID is zero.

static Uuid Uuid::null ( )

staticnoexcept

Returns a null Uuid object.

bool Uuid::operator== ( const Uuid &  ) const

noexcept

bool Uuid::operator!= ( const Uuid &  ) const

noexcept

String Uuid::toString

(

)

const

Returns a stringified version of this UUID.

A Uuid object can later be reconstructed from this string using operator= or the constructor that takes a string parameter.

Returns

a 32 character hex string.

String Uuid::toDashedString

(

)

const

Returns a stringified version of this UUID, separating it into sections with dashes.

Returns

a string in the format: xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx

Uuid& Uuid::operator=

(

const String &

uuidString

)

Copies from a stringified UUID.

The string passed in should be one that was created with the toString() method.

const uint8* Uuid::getRawData ( ) const

noexcept

Returns a pointer to the internal binary representation of the ID.

This is an array of 16 bytes. To reconstruct a Uuid from its data, use the constructor or operator= method that takes an array of uint8s.

References JUCE_LEAK_DETECTOR.

Uuid& Uuid::operator= ( const uint8 *  rawData )

noexcept

Sets this UUID from 16-bytes of raw data.
