5 Definitions

Definitions are sorted by export status, category, package, and then by lexicographic order.


5.1 Public Interface


5.1.1 Special variables

Special Variable: *generator*
Package

secure-random.

Source

secure-random.lisp.


5.1.2 Ordinary functions

Function: number (limit &optional generator)

Returns a cryptographically strong pseudo-random number that is a non-negative number less than LIMIT and of the same type as LIMIT (in the current implementation, only INTEGER type is supporeted). LIMIT is a positive number. GENERATOR is an instance of a
subclass of the SECURE-RANDOM:GENERATOR. Signals an ERROR in case of problems (for example when the random number generator has not been initialized with enough entrophy).

Package

secure-random.

Source

secure-random.lisp.


5.1.3 Generic functions

Generic Function: bytes (count generator)

The only generic function which needs to be implemented by a subclass
of SECURE-RANDOM:GENERATOR. Generates COUNT cryptographically strong pseudo-random bytes using the random number generator GENERATOR. Returns the bytes as a SIMPLE-ARRAY with ELEMENT-TYPE ’(UNSIGNED-BYTE 8). Signals
an ERROR in case of problems (for example when the random number
generator has not been initialized with enough entrophy).

Package

secure-random.

Source

secure-random.lisp.

Methods
Method: bytes (count (generator open-ssl-generator))

5.1.4 Classes

Class: generator

The base class for all the possible implementations of secure random number generator.

Package

secure-random.

Source

secure-random.lisp.

Direct subclasses

open-ssl-generator.


5.2 Internals


5.2.1 Ordinary functions

Function: octets-to-integer (octets-vec)
Package

Class: open-ssl-generator
Package
