composeStateInternal

protected byte[] composeStateInternal(byte[] state,
                                      byte[] parentState)

Combine parent and subclass states. This method must be called by all subclasses in order to ensure that state can be restored in case some of it is stored higher up in the class hierarchy. I.e. the body of the overridden getStateInternal(), will end with a statement like the following:

  
    return composeStateInternal(state,
                                super.getStateInternal());
  
 

where state is the state needed and defined by the class where the method is overridden.

Parameters:

state - State of the calling class.

parentState - State of the calling class' parent.

Returns:

the combined state. Bytes that belong to the local state will be stored at the beginning of the resulting array.

splitStateInternal

protected byte[][] splitStateInternal(byte[] state,
                                      int localStateLength)

Splits the given state into a part to be consumed by the caller in order to restore its local state, while the reminder is passed to the parent class. I.e. the body of the overridden setStateInternal(byte[]), will contain statements like the following:

  
    final byte[][] s = splitState(state, localStateLength);
    // Use "s[0]" to recover the local state.
    super.setStateInternal(s[1]);
  
 

where state is the combined state of the calling class and of all its parents.

Parameters:

state - State. The local state must be stored at the beginning of the array.

localStateLength - Number of elements that will be consumed by the locally defined state.

Returns:

the local state (in slot 0) and the parent state (in slot 1).

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if state.length < localStateLength.

getStateInternal

protected byte[] getStateInternal()

Creates a snapshot of the RNG state.

Returns:

the internal state.

setStateInternal

protected void setStateInternal(byte[] state)

Resets the RNG to the given state.

Parameters:

state - State (previously obtained by a call to getStateInternal()).

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the size of the given array is not consistent with the state defined by this class.

fillState

protected void fillState(int[] state,
                         int[] seed)

Simple filling procedure. It will

1. fill the beginning of state by copying min(seed.length, state.length) elements from seed,
2. set all remaining elements of state with non-zero values (even if seed.length < state.length).

Parameters:

state - State. Must be allocated.

seed - Seed. Cannot be null.

fillState

protected void fillState(long[] state,
                         long[] seed)

Simple filling procedure. It will

1. fill the beginning of state by copying min(seed.length, state.length) elements from seed,
2. set all remaining elements of state with non-zero values (even if seed.length < state.length).

Parameters:

state - State. Must be allocated.

seed - Seed. Cannot be null.

checkStateSize

@Deprecated
protected void checkStateSize(byte[] state,
                              int expected)

Deprecated.

Method is used internally and should be made private in some future release.

Checks that the state has the expected size.

Parameters:

state - State.

expected - Expected length of state array.

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if state.length < expected.

checkIndex

protected void checkIndex(int min,
                          int max,
                          int index)

Checks whether index is in the range [min, max].

Parameters:

min - Lower bound.

max - Upper bound.

index - Value that must lie within the [min, max] interval.

Throws:

IndexOutOfBoundsException - if index is not within the [min, max] interval.
