What's the C++ version of Guid.NewGuid()?

Question

I need to create a GUID in an unmanaged windows C++ project. I'm used to C#, where I'd use Guid.NewGuid(). What's the (unmanaged windows) C++ version?

Answer 1

I think CoCreateGuid is what you're after. Example:

GUID gidReference;
HRESULT hCreateGuid = CoCreateGuid( &gidReference );
