From lynchaird at yahoo.co.uk Sat Dec 1 10:17:22 2012 From: lynchaird at yahoo.co.uk (Nicolas Lynch-Aird) Date: Sat, 1 Dec 2012 10:17:22 -0000 Subject: Windows DLL - version 5 Message-ID: The latest version (5) of the Windows DLL for use with the entropy key is now available at: https://bitbucket.org/entropykeywin/entropykey-win The main changes are: - Improved thread interworking for access to entropy pool. - Using rand_s() instead of rand() for generating random bytes when there are not enough bytes available in the entropy pool. The various functions used to retrieve values from the entropy tool can select between only using bytes obtained from the entropy key(s) or switching to the internal random number generator when there are not enough bytes available from the entropy key(s). - New version of ekey_get_int_range() for retrieving range-restricted integers. This version is more entropy efficient than the previous version. - Modified ekey_get_double01() to ensure flat distribution. - Added ekey_get_float01().

I was not aware there was independent Windows project. Great work. Jeff
