.SH "NAME"
uuid_unparse \- convert a UUID from binary representation to a string
.SH "SYNOPSIS"

\fB#include <uuid.h>\fP
.sp
\fBvoid uuid_unparse(uuid_t \fIuu\fP, char *\fIout\fP);\fP

\fBvoid uuid_unparse_upper(uuid_t \fIuu\fP, char *\fIout\fP);\fP

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
The \fBuuid_unparse\fP() function converts the supplied UUID \fIuu\fP from the binary representation into a 36\-byte string (plus trailing \*(Aq\(rs0\*(Aq) of the form 1b4e28ba\-2fa1\-11d2\-883f\-0016d3cca427 and stores this value in the character string pointed to by \fIout\fP. The case of the hex digits returned by \fBuuid_unparse\fP() may be upper or lower case, and is dependent on the system\-dependent local default.
.sp
If the case of the hex digits is important then the functions \fBuuid_unparse_upper\fP() and \fBuuid_unparse_lower\fP() may be used.
