Get MachineUUID

[mrdebug]

Is there a cross platform function (or at last for Linux and Windows(mingw)) to get Machine UUID?
Thanks

There' some standard Windows class for this called Win32_BaseBoard and I assume there should be something similar (maybe not) in linux too.

Note 1: Tag property of this class has the following description:
"Unique identifier of the baseboard of the system."

Note 2: Look here for more info:

Note 3: No cross-platform methods as far as I know.

Hope this helps

I don't use mingw much but I'm not sure if this is correct. At least I'm sure that mingw works with many parts of WMI.
