When converting to HEX, I get the string
`121F4C264DED5E41A33F445B0A1CAE32`, in which some values are

permutation method into the desired result, but most likely it
will be a crutch rather than the right solution to lead to the
final result `264c1f12-ed4d-415e-a33f-445b0a1cae32`.
So far it has been possible to convert like this
```d
{
writeln(value.attributes["objectGUID"][0].toUUID);
}
UUID toUUID(const char[] objectGUID)
{
if(objectGUID.length != 16)
throw new Exception("objectGUID does not match the
length");
auto arr = (cast(ubyte[])objectGUID).array;
auto part1 = arr[0 .. 4].reverse;
auto part2 = arr[4 .. 6].reverse;
auto part3 = arr[6 .. 8].reverse;
auto part4 = arr[8 .. 10];
auto part5 = arr[10 .. $];
string hex =
toHexString(part1) ~ '-' ~
toHexString(part2) ~ '-' ~
toHexString(part3) ~ '-' ~
toHexString(part4) ~ '-' ~
toHexString(part5);
return cast(UUID)hex;
}
```
