How to Get the UUID?

(1/1)

mdkass:
Hello Experts,

Do you have any Idea how to get the UUID?

Regards.

Phil:
You mean create a UUID?

Maybe CreateGUID in SysUtils?

Thanks.

Or in the IDE pressing Ctrl-Shift-G?

mdkass:
I'm sorry, I think my question was not clear enough.
I'm looking for a unique machine Identifier and one friend advised me to use the hardware UUID  (Unique User ID).

I'm not talking about the GUID.

You can use TProcess to execute system_profiler and then parse the result:

user-46-113-129-147:~ felipe$ system_profiler
