NAME
Crypt::Random::Source::Factory - Load and instantiate sources of random data
SYNOPSIS
use Crypt::Random::Source::Factory;
my $f = Crypt::Random::Source::Factory->new;
my $strong = $f->get_strong;
my $weak = $f->get_weak;
my $any = $f->get;
DESCRIPTION
This class implements a loading and instantiation factory for Crypt::Random::Source objects.
If $ENV{CRYPT_RANDOM_NOT_PLUGGABLE} is set then only a preset list of sources will be tried. Otherwise Module::Find will be used to locate
any installed sources, and use the first available one.
METHODS
get %args
Instantiate any random source, passing %args to the constructor.
The "type" argument can be "weak", "strong" or "any".
get_weak %args
get_strong %args
Instantiate a new weak or strong random source.
