Converts a character-string representation of a Universal Unique Identifier (UUID) into a UUID.
void uuid_$decode ( uuid_string, uuid, status)
char *uuid_string;
uuid_$t *uuid;
status_$t *status;
The uuid_$decode routine returns the UUID corresponding to a valid character-string representation of a UUID.
| uuid_string | Points to the character-string representation of a UUID in the form uuid_$string_t. |
| uuid | Points to the UUID that corresponds to the character string represented in the uuid_string parameter. |
| status | Points to the completion status. |
The following call returns as my_uuid the UUID corresponding to the character-string representation in my_uuid_rep:
uuid_$decode (my_uuid_rep, &my_uuid, &status);
