GUIDType

Important

Device metadata is deprecated and will be removed in a future release of Windows. For information about the replacement for this functionality, see Driver Package Container Metadata.

The GUIDType XML simple type specifies a GUID.

<xs:simpleType name="GUIDType">
    <xs:restriction
        base="xs:string"
    >
        <xs:pattern
            value="[0-9a-fA-F]{8}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}"
         />
    </xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>

Patterns

The GUIDType simple type is a xs:string that is restricted by the following pattern:

  • [0-9a-fA-F]{8}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}

Remarks

The GUIDType XML simple type specifies a GUID that uniquely identifies components within the device metadata package, such as the device's ExperienceID, LanguageNeutralIdentifier and ModelID values.
