I use boost::uuid : http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_43_0/libs/uuid/index.html That way it is guaranteed to still work if I port my application on another plaftorm.

Under Win32 if you want to manipulate GUID's you can use the UuidXXX() Network/RPC functions:

  • UuidCompare()

  • UuidCreate()

  • UuidCreateNil()

  • UuidCreateSequential()

  • UuidEqual()

  • UuidFromString()

  • UuidHash()

  • UuidIsNil()

  • UuidToString()
