<title>Description</title>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_id128_to_string()</function> formats a 128-bit
|
||
ID as a character string. It expects the ID and a string array
|
||
capable of storing 33 characters. The ID will be formatted as 32
|
||
lowercase hexadecimal digits and be terminated by a
|
||
<constant>NUL</constant> byte.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_id128_from_string()</function> implements the reverse operation: it takes a 33 character string
|
||
with 32 hexadecimal digits (either lowercase or uppercase, terminated by <constant>NUL</constant>) and parses them
|
||
back into a 128-bit ID returned in <parameter>ret</parameter>. Alternatively, this call can also parse a
|
||
37-character string with a 128-bit ID formatted as RFC UUID. If <parameter>ret</parameter> is passed as NULL the
|
||
function will validate the passed ID string, but not actually return it in parsed form.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>For more information about the <literal>sd_id128_t</literal>
|
||
type see
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd-id128</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
|
||
Note that these calls operate the same way on all architectures,
|
||
i.e. the results do not depend on endianness.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>When formatting a 128-bit ID into a string, it is often
|
||
easier to use a format string for
|
||
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>printf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
|
||
This is easily done using the
|
||
<function>SD_ID128_FORMAT_STR</function> and
|
||
<function>SD_ID128_FORMAT_VAL()</function> macros. For more
|
||
information see
|
||

|

|

<para><function>sd_id128_to_string()</function> always succeeds
|
||
and returns a pointer to the string array passed in.
|
||
<function>sd_id128_from_string</function> returns 0 on success, in
|
||
which case <parameter>ret</parameter> is filled in, or a negative
|
||
errno-style error code.</para>
