The case of the hex digits returned by .B uuid_unparse may be upper or lower case, and is dependent on the system-dependent local default. .PP If the case of the hex digits is important then the functions .B uuid_unparse_upper and .B uuid_unparse_lower may be used. .SH "CONFORMING TO" OSF DCE 1.1 .SH AUTHOR Theodore Y.
