Function Documentation

_ifconfig_getnode()

OpenRTM_aist.uuid._ifconfig_getnode ( )

protected

Get the hardware address on Unix by running ifconfig.

_ipconfig_getnode()

OpenRTM_aist.uuid._ipconfig_getnode ( )

protected

Get the hardware address on Windows by running ipconfig.exe.

_netbios_getnode()

OpenRTM_aist.uuid._netbios_getnode ( )

protected

Get the hardware address on Windows using NetBIOS calls.
See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/118623 for details.

_random_getnode()

OpenRTM_aist.uuid._random_getnode ( )

protected

Get a random node ID, with eighth bit set as suggested by RFC 4122.

_unixdll_getnode()

OpenRTM_aist.uuid._unixdll_getnode ( )

protected

Get the hardware address on Unix using ctypes.

_windll_getnode()

OpenRTM_aist.uuid._windll_getnode ( )

protected

Get the hardware address on Windows using ctypes.

getnode()

OpenRTM_aist.uuid.getnode

(

)

Get the hardware address as a 48-bit integer.  The first time this
runs, it may launch a separate program, which could be quite slow.  If
all attempts to obtain the hardware address fail, we choose a random
48-bit number with its eighth bit set to 1 as recommended in RFC 4122.

uuid1()

OpenRTM_aist.uuid.uuid1	(		node = None,
			clock_seq = None )

Generate a UUID from a host ID, sequence number, and the current time.
If 'node' is not given, getnode() is used to obtain the hardware
address.  If 'clock_seq' is given, it is used as the sequence number;
otherwise a random 14-bit sequence number is chosen.

uuid3()

OpenRTM_aist.uuid.uuid3	(		namespace,
			name )

Generate a UUID from the MD5 hash of a namespace UUID and a name.

uuid4()

OpenRTM_aist.uuid.uuid4

(

)

Generate a random UUID.

uuid5()

OpenRTM_aist.uuid.uuid5	(		namespace,
			name )

Generate a UUID from the SHA-1 hash of a namespace UUID and a name.
