3//! \file randpool.h
4//! \brief Class file for Randomness Pool
5//! \details RandomPool can be used to generate cryptographic quality pseudorandom bytes
6//!   after seeding the pool with IncorporateEntropy(). Internally, the generator uses
7//!   AES-256 to produce the stream. Entropy is stirred in using SHA-256.
8//! \details RandomPool used to follow the design of randpool in PGP 2.6.x. At version 5.5
9//!   RandomPool was redesigned to reduce the risk of reusing random numbers after state
10//!   rollback (which may occur when running in a virtual machine like VMware or a hosted
11//!   environment).
12//! \details If you need the pre-Crypto++ 5.5 generator then you can find it with:
13//! <pre>
