NAME

Tie::DataUUID - tie interface to Data::UUID;

SYNOPSIS

  use Tie::DataUUID;
  tie my $uuid, "Tie::DataUUID";

  print "A uuid is $uuid, another is $uuid\n"

DESCRIPTION

A simple tie interface to the Data::UUID module. Yes, this doesn't do much - it's just me being to lazy when I have to keep creating UUIDs from within strings.

To be really totally and utterly lazy you can use the exporting interface that exports the $uuid variable so you don't even have to tie things yourself:

  use Tie::DataUUID qw($uuid);
  print "A uuid is $uuid, another is $uuid\n"

In both cases the standard UUID string (that looks like 'E63E9204-9516-11D8-9C9F-AE87831498F6') are produced.
