Hi Carla,
StringFromGUID2 outputs the string form of the guid with braces,
ie:
{c200e360-38c5â11ce-ae62-08002b2b79ef}
But, operator>>(istream&, uuid&) does not expect the braces. It expects
the uuid string in the form: c200e360-38c5â11ce-ae62-08002b2b79ef As you
discovered, string_generator accepts both forms and from wide or narrow
strings. The following should work:
WCHAR guid_buf[50];
StringFromGUID2(guid_value, guid_buf, 50);
boost::uuids::uuid uuid_test =
boost::uuids::string_generator()(guid_buf);
Regards,
Andy.

I actually think I can use the boost uuid generator.
It worked in my testing :O)

Subject: dnd boost uuids
I am trying to convert a legacy GUID on mircosoft to use the
boost uuid.
I am utilizing the stringstream as mentioned in the boost uuid
documentation.
I have managed to get the GUID converted into a string but am
unable to inject the string value
Into the uuid variable.
Below is just a snippet of a test program. I read it back
into a buffer variable to make sure that value was properly
set. ss gets the value of guid_str but does not set the
value in uuid_test.
WCHAR guid_buf[50];
Boost::uuids::uuid uuid_test;
StringFromGUID2(guid_value, guid_buf, 50);
char *guid_str = OLE2A(guid_buf);
std::stringstream ss;
char buf[50];
ss << guid_str;
ss >> uuid_test;
ss << uuid_test;
ss >> buf;
Obvioulsy I am using stringstream wrong. Does anyone know how
to convert a GUID to a boost UUID? I canât seem to find the
documentation or interface.
