@@ -37,41 +39,41 @@ OpenSSL makes sure that the PRNG state is unique for each thread. On
systems that provide C</dev/urandom>, the randomness device is used
to seed the PRNG transparently. However, on all other systems, the
application is responsible for seeding the PRNG by calling RAND_add(),
L<RAND_egd(3)|RAND_egd(3)>
or L<RAND_load_file(3)|RAND_load_file(3)>.
L<RAND_egd(3)>
or L<RAND_load_file(3)>.
RAND_seed() is equivalent to RAND_add() when B<num == entropy>.
RAND_event() collects the entropy from Windows events such as mouse
movements and other user interaction. It should be called with the
B<iMsg>, B<wParam> and B<lParam> arguments of I<all> messages sent to
the window procedure. It will estimate the entropy contained in the
event message (if any), and add it to the PRNG. The program can then
process the messages as usual.
The RAND_screen() function is available for the convenience of Windows
programmers. It adds the current contents of the screen to the PRNG.
For applications that can catch Windows events, seeding the PRNG by
calling RAND_event() is a significantly better source of
randomness. It should be noted that both methods cannot be used on
servers that run without user interaction.
RAND_event() and RAND_screen() are deprecated and should not be called.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
RAND_status() and RAND_event() return 1 if the PRNG has been seeded
RAND_status() returns 1 if the PRNG has been seeded
with enough data, 0 otherwise.
RAND_event() calls RAND_poll() and returns RAND_status().
RAND_screen calls RAND_poll().
The other functions do not return values.

=head1 HISTORY
RAND_seed() and RAND_screen() are available in all versions of SSLeay
and OpenSSL. RAND_add() and RAND_status() have been added in OpenSSL
0.9.5, RAND_event() in OpenSSL 0.9.5a.
RAND_event() and RAND_screen() are deprecated since OpenSSL
1.1.0. Use the functions described above instead.
