DCE-совместимая библиотека универсальных уникальных идентификаторов (DCE compatible Universally Unique Identifier library)
Имя (Name)
uuid - DCE compatible Universally Unique Identifier library
Синопсис (Synopsis)
#include <uuid.h>
Описание (Description)
The UUID library is used to generate unique identifiers for
objects that may be accessible beyond the local system. This
library generates UUIDs compatible with those created by the Open
Software Foundation (OSF) Distributed Computing Environment (DCE)
utility uuidgen(1).
The UUIDs generated by this library can be reasonably expected to
be unique within a system, and unique across all systems. They
could be used, for instance, to generate unique HTTP cookies
across multiple web servers without communication between the
servers, and without fear of a name clash.
Стандарты (Conforming to)
This library generates UUIDs compatible with OSF DCE 1.1, and
hash based UUIDs V3 and V5 compatible with RFC-4122
<https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4122>.
