Class PRNG

java.lang.Object

io.vertx.ext.auth.PRNG

All Implemented Interfaces:

VertxContextPRNG

Deprecated.

this class should not be used directly and should be package private

@Deprecated
public class PRNG
extends Object
implements VertxContextPRNG

Wrapper around secure random that periodically seeds the PRNG with new entropy. To avoid entropy exhaustion the entropy is only refreshed if the PRNG is used. This introduces a new variable which reduces the probability of cracking the random number generator.
