Algorithm Property
The random number algorithm.
Syntax
property Algorithm: TipcTRands read get_Algorithm write set_Algorithm;
TipcTRands = ( raISAAC, raMSCryptoAPI, raPlatform, raSecurePlatform, raRC4Random );
Default Value
raISAAC
Remarks
This property specifies the algorithm used to generate the random number or bytes. Possible values are:
| 0 (raISAAC) | ISAAC (indirection, shift, accumulate, add, and count) |
| 1 (raMSCryptoAPI) | The Microsoft Crypto API. This is only available on Windows. |
| 2 (raPlatform) | The platform's random implementation. |
| 3 (raSecurePlatform) | The platform's secure random implementation. This is only applicable in .NET and Java. In .NET the component uses the "RNGCryptoServiceProvider" class. In Java the component uses the "SecureRandom" class. |
| 4 (raRC4Random) | RC4 based random implementation. |
