public class FortunaRandomSource
extends RandomSource
implements EntropyHarvester

Wrapper around GNU-Crypto's Fortuna PRNG. This seeds from /dev/urandom and ./prngseed.rnd on startup (if they exist), writing a new seed to ./prngseed.rnd on an explicit call to saveSeed().

 long nextLong(long n)
          Like the modified nextInt, nextLong(n) returns a random number from 0 through n, including 0, excluding n.

Method Detail

setSeed

public void setSeed(byte[] buf)

nextInt

public int nextInt(int n)
According to the java docs (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/api/java/util/Random.html#nextInt(int)) nextInt(n) should return a number between 0 and n (including 0 and excluding n). However, their pseudocode, as well as sun's, kaffe's, and classpath's implementation INCLUDES NEGATIVE VALUES. WTF. Ok, so we're going to have it return between 0 and n (including 0, excluding n), since thats what it has been used for.
