A C++17 cross-platform single-header library implementation for universally unique identifiers, simply know as either UUID or GUID (mostly on Windows). A UUID is a 128-bit number used to uniquely identify information in computer systems, such as database table keys, COM interfaces, classes and type libraries, and many others.
Features
- Function object that generates version 4 UUIDs using a pseudo-random number generator engine
- Namespace ID for name-based uuids when name string is a fully-qualified domain name
- UUIDs comparison for equality/inequality
- This library is an implementation of the proposal P0959
- Documentation available
- Examples included
- The library is supported on all major operating systems: Windows, Linux and Mac OS
