Question

How do you control the GUID when programming Windows in C or C ++?

Answer 1

In Win32, if you want to manipulate a GUID, you can use the UuidXXX () Network / RPC functions:

• UuidCompare ()

• UuidCreate ()

• UuidCreateNil ()

• UuidCreateSequential ()

• UuidEqual ()

• UuidFromString ()

• UuidHash ()

• UuidIsNil ()

• UuidToString ()

Answer 2

I use boost :: uuid: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_43_0/libs/uuid/index.html This way it is guaranteed that it will work anyway if I transfer the application to another tablet.
