It supports DCE 1.1 variant UUIDs of version + 1 (time and node based), version 3 (name based, MD5), version 4 + (random number based) and version 5 (name based, SHA-1). Additional + API bindings are provided for the languages ISO-C++:1998, Perl:5 and + PHP:4/5. Optional backward compatibility exists for the ISO-C DCE-1.1 + and Perl Data::UUID APIs. + + UUIDs are 128 bit numbers which are intended to have a high likelihood + of uniqueness over space and time and are computationally difficult + to guess. They are globally unique identifiers which can be locally + generated without contacting a global registration authority. UUIDs + are intended as unique identifiers for both mass tagging objects + with an extremely short lifetime and to reliably identifying very + persistent objects across a network. + + COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE + + Copyright (c) 2004-2008 Ralf S.
