JVMRandom is a wrapper that supports all possible * Random methods via the {@link java.lang.Math#random()} method * and its system-wide {@link 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 * {@link Random#nextInt(int)} and {@link Random#nextLong()} * to produce positive numbers ranging from 0 (inclusive) * to MAX_VALUE (exclusive). * * @since 2.0 * @version $Id: JVMRandom.java 911986 2010-02-19 21:19:05Z niallp $ */ public final class JVMRandom extends Random { /** * Required for serialization support. * * @see java.io.Serializable */ private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; private static final Random SHARED_RANDOM = new Random(); /** * Ensures that only the parent constructor can call reseed. */ private boolean constructed = false; /** * Constructs a new instance. */ public JVMRandom() { this.constructed = true; } /** * Unsupported in 2.0. * * @param seed ignored * @throws UnsupportedOperationException */ public synchronized void setSeed(long seed) { if (this.constructed) { throw new UnsupportedOperationException(); } } /** * Unsupported in 2.0. * * @return Nothing, this method always throws an UnsupportedOperationException. * @throws UnsupportedOperationException */ public synchronized double nextGaussian() { throw new UnsupportedOperationException(); } /** * Unsupported in 2.0. * * @param byteArray ignored * @throws UnsupportedOperationException */ public void nextBytes(byte[] byteArray) { throw new UnsupportedOperationException(); } /** *
