UUID - Perl extension for using UUID interfaces as defined in e2fsprogs.
use UUID; UUID::generate($uuid); # generates a 128 bit uuid UUID::unparse($uuid, $string); # change $uuid to 36 byte string $rc = UUID::parse($string, $uuid); # map string to UUID, return -1 on error
With these 3 routines UUID''s can easily be generated and parsed/un-parsed.
