Make the UUID Regexp a separate constant #25

Closed sodabrew closed 11 years ago

sodabrew commented 11 years ago

Other packages can test for UUID likeness by 'candidate =~ UUIDTools::UUID_REGEXP' without having to fully parse the UUID.

sporkmonger commented 11 years ago

Agree that this should be a constant, but perhaps testing if a string is a UUID is something that UUIDTools should natively support via its own method?

sodabrew commented 11 years ago

I was thinking about that. Something like UUIDTools::UUID.is_uuid?
