Constructor & Destructor Documentation

eq::base::UUID::UUID

(

const bool

generate = false

)

[inline]

Construct a new universally unique identifier.

If generate is set to true, a new UUID is allocated. Otherwise the UUID is cleared, i.e., it is equal to UUID::ZERO.

Definition at line 137 of file uuid.h.

eq::base::UUID::UUID

(

const Data &

from
