Alex D Herbert commented on RNG-19:
-----------------------------------
I have merged the wrapper into master. Although the wrapper that can use
SecureRandom is not a direct implementation of reading from {{/dev/urandom}}
this should satisfy the original wish. Functionality is as previously suggested:
{code:java}
UniformRandomProvider rng =
new JDKRandomWrapper(SecureRandom.getInstance("NativePRNGNonBlocking"));
{code}
Requires:
- Linux/MacOS
- Java 1.8
> System generator (/dev/random)

> Issue Type: Wish
> Reporter: Emmanuel Bourg
> Priority: Minor
> Time Spent: 40m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h

> Commons RNG could include a random number generator based on the output of
> /dev/random or /dev/urandom on Unix systems.
> Commons Crypto has an implementation that could be used as a starting point:
