 Hello!

 In the documentation for string_generator there are two examples:

 boost::uuids::string_generator gen;
 boost::uuids::uuid u1 = gen("{01234567-89ab-cdef-0123456789abcdef}");
 boost::uuids::uuid u2 = gen(L"01234567-89ab-cdef-0123456789abcdef");

 Both will trigger an "std::runtime_error: invalid uuid string" exception.

 The strings are missing a dash and should be corrected to "01234567-89ab-
 cdef-0123-456789abcdef"

 Best regards
 Sönke Schau
