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. .SH "CONFORMING TO" .sp This library unparses UUIDs compatible with OSF DCE 1.1. .SH "AUTHORS" .sp Theodore Y.
