Guid.NewGuid Method

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Initializes a new instance of the Guid class.

Namespace:  System
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<SecuritySafeCriticalAttribute> _
Public Shared Function NewGuid As Guid
[SecuritySafeCriticalAttribute]
public static Guid NewGuid()

Return Value

Type: System.Guid
A new Guid object.

Remarks

This is a convenient static method that you can call to get a new Guid.

There is a very low probability that the value of the new Guid is all zeroes or equal to any other Guid. You can determine whether a GUID consists of all zeros by comparing it to Guid.Empty.

Examples

The following code example creates and displays the values of two Guid objects.

' This code example demonstrates the Guid.NewGuid() method.

Class Example
   Public Shared Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)
      Dim g As Guid
      ' Create and display the value of two GUIDs.
      g = Guid.NewGuid()
      outputBlock.Text &= g.ToString() & vbCrLf
      outputBlock.Text &= Guid.NewGuid().ToString() & vbCrLf
   End Sub 
End Class
