1Data::UUID
2=================
3
4Data::UUID - Perl extension for generating Globally/Universally
5	     Unique Identifiers (GUIDs/UUIDs).
6
7This module provides a framework for generating UUIDs (Universally Unique
8Identifiers, also known as GUIDs (Globally Unique Identifiers). A UUID is
9128 bits long, and is guaranteed to be different from all other UUIDs/GUIDs
10generated until 3400 A.D. UUIDs were originally used in the Network Computing
11System (NCS) and later in the Open Software Foundation's (OSF) Distributed
12Computing Environment. Currently many different technologies rely on UUIDs to
13provide unique identity for various software components, Microsoft COM/DCOM
14for instance, uses GUIDs very extensively to uniquely identify classes,
15applications and components across network-connected systems.

17INSTALLATION
18
19To install this module type the following:
20
21   perl Makefile.PL
22   make
23   make test
24   make install
25
26NOTE: This module is designed to save its state information in a permanent
27storage location. The installation script (i.e. Makefile.PL) prompts for
28a directory name to use as a storage location for state file and defaults
29this directory to "/var/tmp" if no directory name is provided.
30The installation script will not accept names of directories that do not
31exist, however, it will take the locations, which the installing user
32has no write permissions to. In this case, the state information will not be
33saved, which will maximize the chances of generating duplicate UUIDs.
