使用Objective-C建立UUID

UUID是128位的值，它可以保证唯一性。通常，它是由机器本身网卡的MAC地址和当前系统时间来生成的。
UUID是由中划线连接而成的字符串。例如：13222F23-C76A-7781-0C12-0293E3B34398.
下面这个方法可以生成UUID并以字符串的方式进行返回。

- (NSString *)createUUID
{
  // Create universally unique identifier (object)
  CFUUIDRef uuidObject = CFUUIDCreate(kCFAllocatorDefault);

  // Get the string representation of CFUUID object.
  NSString *uuidStr = (NSString *)CFUUIDCreateString(kCFAllocatorDefault, uuidObject);

  // If needed, here is how to get a representation in bytes, returned as a structure
  // typedef struct {
  //   UInt8 byte0;
  //   UInt8 byte1;
  //   …
  //   UInt8 byte15;
  // } CFUUIDBytes;
  CFUUIDBytes bytes = CFUUIDGetUUIDBytes(uuidObject);

  CFRelease(uuidObject);

  return uuidStr;
}
