uuid_unparse

UUID_UNPARSE(3) 						    Libuuid API 						   UUID_UNPARSE(3)

NAME

       uuid_unparse - convert an UUID from binary representation to a string

SYNOPSIS

       #include <uuid.h>

       void uuid_unparse(uuid_t uu, char *out);
       void uuid_unparse_upper(uuid_t uu, char *out);
       void uuid_unparse_lower(uuid_t uu, char *out);

DESCRIPTION

       The  uuid_unparse  function  converts  the supplied UUID uu from the binary representation into a 36-byte string (plus tailing '') of the
       form 1b4e28ba-2fa1-11d2-883f-0016d3cca427 and stores this value in the character string pointed to by out.  The	case  of  the  hex  digits
       returned by uuid_unparse may be upper or lower case, and is dependent on the system-dependent local default.

       If the case of the hex digits is important then the functions uuid_unparse_upper and uuid_unparse_lower may be used.
