Class JVMRandom

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable
    @Deprecated(since="2021-04-30")
public final class JVMRandom
extends java.util.Random
    Deprecated.
    Commons Lang 2 is in maintenance mode. Commons Lang 3 should be used instead.

    JVMRandom is a wrapper that supports all possible Random methods via the Math.random() method and its system-wide Random object.

    It does this to allow for a Random class in which the seed is shared between all members of the class - a better name would have been SharedSeedRandom.

    N.B. the current implementation overrides the methods Random.nextInt(int) and Random.nextLong() to produce positive numbers ranging from 0 (inclusive) to MAX_VALUE (exclusive).
