guid() [8/8]

xtd::guid::guid ( const string &  guid )

explicit

Initializes a new instance of the xtd::guid structure by using the value represented by the specified string.

Parameters

guid

A string that contains a GUID in one of the following formats ("d" represents a hexadecimal digit whose case is ignored): 32 contiguous digits: dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd -or- Groups of 8, 4, 4, 4, and 12 digits with hyphens between the groups. The entire GUID can optionally be enclosed in matching braces or parentheses: dddddddd-dddd-dddd-dddd-dddddddddddd -or- {dddddddd-dddd-dddd-dddd-dddddddddddd} -or- (dddddddd-dddd-dddd-dddd-dddddddddddd) -or- Groups of 8, 4, and 4 digits, and a subset of eight groups of 2 digits, with each group prefixed by "0x" or "0X", and separated by commas. The entire GUID, as well as the subset, is enclosed in matching braces: {0xdddddddd, 0xdddd, 0xdddd,{0xdd,0xdd,0xdd,0xdd,0xdd,0xdd,0xdd,0xdd}} All braces, commas, and "0x" prefixes are required. All embedded spaces are ignored. All leading zeros in a group are ignored. The digits shown in a group are the maximum number of meaningful digits that can appear in that group. You can specify from 1 to the number of digits shown for a group. The specified digits are assumed to be the low-order digits of the group.

Exceptions

Remarks

The alphabetic hexadecimal digits in the g parameter can be uppercase or lowercase. For example, the following strings represent the same GUID:

"ca761232ed4211cebacd00aa0057b223"

"CA761232-ED42-11CE-BACD-00AA0057B223"

"{CA761232-ED42-11CE-BACD-00AA0057B223}"

"(CA761232-ED42-11CE-BACD-00AA0057B223)"

"{0xCA761232, 0xED42, 0x11CE, {0xBA, 0xCD, 0x00, 0xAA, 0x00, 0x57, 0xB2, 0x23}}"
