Represents a GID. GID is not an EAN.UCC Format so this class, although it derives from EPCBase,will provide different

Encode

overrides. Also, GIDs only come in the 96 Bit variety. There is no 64-Bit GID.

For a list of all members of this type, see GID Members.

Thread Safety

Public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are safe for multithreaded operations. Instance members are not guaranteed to be thread-safe.

Example

 //create a GID EPC Number, no need to specify the size because only 96 bits are created.
   GID gid = new GID();
 //Supply the Global Manager Number, Object Class and Serial Number
   gid.Encode(123456789,12345,1);
 //write the GID Encoding to the console in the default format of HEX.
   Console.Write(gid.ToString());
   
 //ToXml() will return this XML Document
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
