9.7;uuid_gen (UUID generating program), revision 1.0, 87/08/14
UUID_GEN (UUID_GENERATOR) -- UUID generating program
usage:  /sys/ncs/uuid_gen [options]


FORMAT

  /sys/ncs/uuid_gen [options]


  The  uuid_gen  program  generates  Universal  Unique  Identifiers  (UUIDs). By
  default, it generates a character-string representation of a UUID. The options
  for  uuid_gen  enable  you to generate templates for NIDL files or to generate
  source- code representations of UUIDs, suitable for initializing variables  of
  type uuid_$t.


OPTIONS

  -c                  Generates  a  template, including a UUID attribute, for an
                     interface definition in the C syntax of NIDL.

  -p                 Generates a template, including a UUID  attribute,  for  an
                     interface definition in the Pascal syntax of NIDL.

  -C                 Generates a C source-code representation of a UUID.

  -P                 Generates a Pascal source-code representation of a UUID.


EXAMPLES

  Generate a character-string representation of a UUID.

      $ /sys/ncs/uuid_gen
      34dc23469000.0d.00.00.7c.5f.00.00.00

  Generate a template for an interface definition in the C syntax of NIDL.

      $ /sys/ncs/uuid_gen -c
      %c
      [
      uuid(34dc239ec000.0d.00.00.7c.5f.00.00.00),
      version(1)
      ]
      interface INTERFACENAME {

  Generate a C source-code representation of a UUID.

      $ /sys/ncs/uuid_gen -C
      = { 0x34dc23af,
          0xf000,
          0x0000,
          0x0d,
          {0x00, 0x00, 0x7c, 0x5f, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00} };
