note

This article is about the guid:newguid Blend function.

guid:newguid​

Returns a generated unique ID (GUID), for example:

8149B1A7-EB8C-437B-979F-6E12ACB0EF3D

Syntax​

Namespace declaration​

You need to declare this namespace only if you call the function directly from the USCSXSL component but outside Blend. In a Blend context (ublendit.exe, uscsxsl.blend()) the namespace is already declared in the Blend transformation, which is in xsl\Util\Batch.1.0.xsl in your USoft installation folder.

xmlns:guid="USoft:GUID"

Function call​

guid:newguid( )

Example​

<pc:assign-string ticket="{guid:newguid()}"/>
<pc:value-of select="$ticket"/>
