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.
It allows you to "create" random UUIDs, which when "formatted" returns a string like:
'd48889bb−d11d−b211−8567−ec81968c93c6';
which can be parsed back into the "APR::UUID" object with "parse()".
"APR::UUID" provides the following functions and/or methods:
"format"
Convert an "APR::UUID object" object into
a string presentation:
my $uuid_str = $uuid−>format;
obj: $uuid ( "APR::UUID
object" )
ret: $uuid_str
returns a string representation of the object (.e.g 'd48889bb−d11d−b211−8567−ec81968c93c6').
since: 2.0.00
"new"
Create a "APR::UUID object" using the
random engine:
my $uuid = APR::UUID−>new;
class: "APR::UUID" (
"APR::UUID class" )
ret: $uuid ( "APR::UUID object" )
since: 2.0.00
"DESTROY"
$uuid−>DESTROY;
obj: "APR::UUID" (
"APR::UUID object" )
ret: no return value
since: 2.0.00
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)
arg1: $uuid_str (string)
UUID string (.e.g 'd48889bb−d11d−b211−8567−ec81968c93c6')
ret: $uuid ( "APR::UUID object" )
The new object.
