Are the UUID's generated with nRFgo valid?

[Marcel Mulder]

Hi,

I just took a look to nRFgo to see how it generates vendor specific UUID's. It looks if they are generated completely random including the version number. According to RFC4122 the UUID string had the format of:

xxxxxxxx-xxxx-Vxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx

where V is the version number of the UUID. For random generated UUID this should be 4. If i look to the generated base uuid's in nRFgo than the V part is also random. I think you end up with an invalid UUID or am I wrong?

You are correct, the UUID generated does not appear to be a Version 4 UUID. However this does not mean that the number generated is incorrect , it however does not conform to the Version 4 UUID convention. You can edit the number created to match the Version 4 UUID. i.e. using the nRGgo studio as a random number generator.

We will have a fix the issue in the next release of the nRFgo studio. Thanks for the input. This has been acknowledged and fixed and will be part of the next release of nRFgo Studio
