API to generate 128-bit UUID?

» close window

The Question is:

 
Is there a callable interface available under OpenVMS or within a layered
 product that will generate a 128-bit UUID?
 
I have looked at the Compaq DCE for OpenVMS VAX and OpenVMS Alpha Reference
 Guide but there only appears to be a command line utility for doing this. I
 need to be able to do this from within a C program.

The Answer is :

 
 uuid_create?
