2.3 Comparison

1 min read

2.3.1 Equality #

Two GUIDs are equal if and only if their 16-byte binary representations are identical.

GUID comparison MUST be performed on the binary representation, not on string representations.

2.3.2 Ordering #

This document does not define a total ordering for GUIDs. Specifications that require an ordered GUID collection MUST define their ordering convention explicitly.
