Dear Charlie, or anybody from Kx :)
Is there kdb+ 3.0-ready k.h, c.dll & c.lib (w32, w64) - recognizing (-)02h guid type?
Would like to update qpad for 3.0 early adopters/enthusiasts, but can’t without them :)
Also, is there something somewhere to read about how guid behaves (so far found only one mention in reference article on type )
So far as I my fiddling went - I figured I can cast strings (not symbols) to -2h (not to 2h, not to `guid)
(if format is “c8b522cf-5cf3-11ce-ade5-00aa0044773d” - with dashes, but w/o {})
any other format result in casting to 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000,
wrongly placed dashes will have even more interesting result ;-)
They can be compared, (not only ~,= but < and > as well), but not subtracted or otherwise operated.
Couldn’t be casted to anything, but string[guid] will work nice, return is lowercase.
Thank you in advance!
