Public Property UUID As String

Dim instance As XdsFolder
Dim value As String
 
instance.UUID = value
 
value = instance.UUID

public string UUID {get; set;}

public:
property String^ UUID {
   String^ get();
   void set (    String^ value);
}

Remarks

This property corresponds to the XDSFolder.entryUUID attribute

This ID may be assigned by either by Source, Repository, or Registry

There is often confusion between this value and the UniqueID, and the Technical framework notes:

"The globally unique identifier (may be assigned by either by Source, Repository, or Registry) is primarily intended for use as a document registry management identifier. It is not meant to be an external reference for XDS Documents (e.g. in links within other documents). The uniqueId is meant for that purpose so that such links remain valid"

Requirements

Target Platforms: Windows 7, Windows Vista SP1 or later, Windows XP SP3, Windows Server 2008 (Server Core not supported), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Server Core supported with SP1 or later), Windows Server 2003 SP2
