SecureRandom Constructors

Definition

Namespace:

Java.Security

Assembly:

Mono.Android.dll

Overloads

SecureRandom()	Constructs a secure random number generator (RNG) implementing the default random number algorithm.
SecureRandom(Byte[])	Constructs a secure random number generator (RNG) implementing the default random number algorithm.
SecureRandom(SecureRandomSpi, Provider)	Creates a SecureRandom object.
SecureRandom(IntPtr, JniHandleOwnership)	A constructor used when creating managed representations of JNI objects; called by the runtime.

SecureRandom()

Constructs a secure random number generator (RNG) implementing the default random number algorithm.

[Android.Runtime.Register(".ctor", "()V", "")]
public SecureRandom ();

Attributes

RegisterAttribute

Remarks

Constructs a secure random number generator (RNG) implementing the default random number algorithm.

This constructor traverses the list of registered security Providers, starting with the most preferred Provider. A new SecureRandom object encapsulating the SecureRandomSpi implementation from the first Provider that supports a SecureRandom (RNG) algorithm is returned. If none of the Providers support a RNG algorithm, then an implementation-specific default is returned.

Note that the list of registered providers may be retrieved via the Security#getProviders() Security.getProviders() method.

See the SecureRandom section in the Java Security Standard Algorithm Names Specification for information about standard RNG algorithm names.

SecureRandom(Byte[])

Constructs a secure random number generator (RNG) implementing the default random number algorithm.

[Android.Runtime.Register(".ctor", "([B)V", "")]
public SecureRandom (byte[]? seed);

[<Android.Runtime.Register(".ctor", "([B)V", "")>]
new Java.Security.SecureRandom : byte[] -> Java.Security.SecureRandom

Parameters

seed

Byte[]

the seed.

Attributes

RegisterAttribute

Remarks

Constructs a secure random number generator (RNG) implementing the default random number algorithm. The SecureRandom instance is seeded with the specified seed bytes.

This constructor traverses the list of registered security Providers, starting with the most preferred Provider. A new SecureRandom object encapsulating the SecureRandomSpi implementation from the first Provider that supports a SecureRandom (RNG) algorithm is returned. If none of the Providers support a RNG algorithm, then an implementation-specific default is returned.

Note that the list of registered providers may be retrieved via the Security#getProviders() Security.getProviders() method.

SecureRandom(SecureRandomSpi, Provider)

Creates a SecureRandom object.

[Android.Runtime.Register(".ctor", "(Ljava/security/SecureRandomSpi;Ljava/security/Provider;)V", "")]
protected SecureRandom (Java.Security.SecureRandomSpi? secureRandomSpi, Java.Security.Provider? provider);

[<Android.Runtime.Register(".ctor", "(Ljava/security/SecureRandomSpi;Ljava/security/Provider;)V", "")>]
new Java.Security.SecureRandom : Java.Security.SecureRandomSpi * Java.Security.Provider -> Java.Security.SecureRandom

Parameters

secureRandomSpi

SecureRandomSpi

the SecureRandom implementation.

provider

Provider

the provider.

Attributes

RegisterAttribute

Remarks

Creates a SecureRandom object.

SecureRandom(IntPtr, JniHandleOwnership)

A constructor used when creating managed representations of JNI objects; called by the runtime.

protected SecureRandom (IntPtr javaReference, Android.Runtime.JniHandleOwnership transfer);

new Java.Security.SecureRandom : nativeint * Android.Runtime.JniHandleOwnership -> Java.Security.SecureRandom

Parameters

javaReference

IntPtr

nativeint

A IntPtrcontaining a Java Native Interface (JNI) object reference.

transfer

JniHandleOwnership

A JniHandleOwnershipindicating how to handle javaReference
