fun parseHex(hexString: String): Uuid
(source)

Parses a uuid from the hexadecimal string representation as described in Uuid.toHexString.

This function is case-insensitive, and for a valid hexString, the following property holds:

val uuid = Uuid.parseHex(hexString)
assertEquals(uuid.toHexString(), hexString.lowercase())

import kotlin.uuid.*

fun main(args: Array<String>) {
//sampleStart
val uuid = Uuid.parseHex("550E8400e29b41d4A716446655440000") // case insensitive
println(uuid) // 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000
//sampleEnd
}

Parameters

hexString - A 32-character hexadecimal string representing the uuid, without hyphens.

Exceptions

IllegalArgumentException - If the hexString is not a 32-character hexadecimal string.

Return A uuid represented by the specified hexadecimal string.
