Constructor & Destructor Documentation

UL

(

)

[private]

Prevent default construction.

UL

(

const UInt8 *

ID

)

[inline]

Construct a UL from a sequence of bytes.

Note:

The byte string must contain at least 16 bytes or errors will be produced when it is used

UL

(

const SmartPtr< UL >

ID

)

[inline]

Construct a UL as a copy of another UL.

UL

(

const UL &

RHS

)

[inline]

Copy constructor.

UL

(

const UUID &

RHS

)

[inline]

Construct a UL from an end-swapped UUID.

UL

(

const UUIDPtr &

RHS

)

[inline]

Construct a UL from an end-swapped UUID.

UL

(

const UUID *

RHS

)

[inline]

Construct a UL from an end-swapped UUID.

Member Function Documentation

bool operator==

(

const UL &

RHS

)

const [inline]

Fast compare a UL based on testing most-likely to fail bytes first.

We use an unrolled loop with modified order for best efficiency DRAGONS: There may be a slightly faster way that will prevent pipeline stalling, but this is fast enough!

bool Matches

(

const UL &

RHS

)

const [inline]

Fast compare a UL based on testing most-likely to fail bytes first *IGNORING THE VERSION NUMBER*.

We use an unrolled loop with modified order for best efficiency DRAGONS: There may be a slightly faster way that will prevent pipeline stalling, but this is fast enough!

UL & operator=

(

const UUID &

RHS

)

[inline]

Set a UL from a UUID, does end swapping.

UL& operator=

(

const UUIDPtr &

RHS

)

[inline]

Set a UL from a UUID, does end swapping.

UL& operator=

(

const UUID *

RHS

)

[inline]

Set a UL from a UUID, does end swapping.

std::string GetString

(

void

)

const [inline]

Produce a human-readable string in one of the "standard" formats.

Reimplemented from Identifier< 16 >.
