## Class DigestRandomGenerator

- java.lang.Object
- - org.bouncycastle.crypto.prng.DigestRandomGenerator

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    RandomGenerator

      public class DigestRandomGenerator
      extends java.lang.Object
      implements RandomGenerator

  Random generation based on the digest with counter. Calling addSeedMaterial will always increase the entropy of the hash.

  Internal access to the digest is synchronized so a single one of these can be shared.
