<h1 id="DESCRIPTION">DESCRIPTION</h1>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>All random number generator (RANDs) go through a number of stages in their life-cycle:</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<dl>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<dt id="start">start</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>This state represents the RAND before it has been allocated. It is the starting state for any life-cycle transitions.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt id="newed">newed</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>This state represents the RAND after it has been allocated but unable to generate any output.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt id="instantiated">instantiated</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>This state represents the RAND when it is set up and capable of generating output.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt id="uninstantiated">uninstantiated</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>This state represents the RAND when it has been shutdown and it is no longer capable of generating output.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt id="freed">freed</dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>This state is entered when the RAND is freed. It is the terminal state for all life-cycle transitions.</p>
