typedef P6UINT32 P6R::P6ENTROPYFLAGS |
P6ENTROPYFLAGS.
This parameter gives a hint to the system on how random the entropy source is desired. On some operating systems (e.g., Linux) selecting "P6ENTROPY_HIGH" can slow down execution wherever a p6IEntropySource is used. _HIGH or _LOW Currently on Windows system this has no effect. On Unix, passing P6ENTROPY_LOW will result in the use of "/dev/urandom". And passing P6ENTROPY_HIGH will result in the use of "/dev/random".
Generic component flags,
P6ENTROPY_NOFLAGS - no component preferences set
P6ENTROPY_LOW - low performance cost in using, far less randomness
P6ENTROPY_HIGH - maximun amount of randomness the system can generate
