APR::UUID - Perl API for manipulating APR UUIDs
use APR::UUID (); # get a random UUID and format it as a string my $uuid = APR::UUID->new->format; # $uuid = e.g. 'd48889bb-d11d-b211-8567-ec81968c93c6'; # same as the object returned by APR::UUID->new my $uuid_parsed = APR::UUID->parse($uuid);
APR::UUID is used to get and manipulate random UUIDs.
APR::UUID
It allows you to create random UUIDs, which when formatted returns a string like:
create
formatted
'd48889bb-d11d-b211-8567-ec81968c93c6';
which can be parsed back into the APR::UUID object with parse().
parse()
APR::UUID provides the following functions and/or methods:
format
Convert an APR::UUID object object into a string presentation:
APR::UUID object
my $uuid_str = $uuid->format;
$uuid
$uuid_str
returns a string representation of the object (.e.g 'd48889bb-d11d-b211-8567-ec81968c93c6').
'd48889bb-d11d-b211-8567-ec81968c93c6'
new
Create a APR::UUID object using the random engine:
my $uuid = APR::UUID->new;
APR::UUID class
DESTROY
$uuid->DESTROY;
Do not call this method, it's designed to be only called by Perl when the variable goes out of scope. If you call it yourself you will get a segfault when perl will call DESTROY on its own.
parse
Convert a UUID string into an APR::UUID object object:
$uuid = APR::UUID->parse($uuid_str)
UUID string (.e.g 'd48889bb-d11d-b211-8567-ec81968c93c6')
The new object.
