    unsigned short b,
    unsigned short c,
    unsigned char d,
    unsigned char e,
    unsigned char f,
    unsigned char g,
    unsigned char h,
    unsigned char i,
    unsigned char j,
    unsigned char k );

Guid(GUID m);

Guid(
    unsigned int a,
    unsigned short b,
    unsigned short c,
    Array<unsigned char>^ n );

a
The first 4 bytes of the GUID.

b
The next 2 bytes of the GUID.

c
The next 2 bytes of the GUID.

d
The next byte of the GUID.

e
The next byte of the GUID.

f
The next byte of the GUID.

g
The next byte of the GUID.

h
The next byte of the GUID.

i
The next byte of the GUID.

j
The next byte of the GUID.

k
