ssltest Windows

[gitqlt]

should run on Windows? Compiling and creating jar is OK. Then it crashes
Exception in thread "main" java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: NativePRNG SecureRandom not available
at sun.security.jca.GetInstance.getInstance(Unknown Source)

Odd that Java on Windows doesn't provide a "native" PRNG. Oh, wait... it does, but under a different name. Try changing NativePRNG on line 350 to Windows-PRNG.

@gitqlt Did changing the PRNG work for you? I'd prefer not to build-in platform-detection to pick a SecureRandom implementation, but it looks like I might have to do that, or something like it.

[gitqlt]

Sure @ChristopherSchultz , the tool works fine on Windows, when compiled with Windows-PRNG instead of NativePRNG. Windows-PRNG works.
However, this tool is not a security-sensitive application (or is it?). So, what about using a platform-independent java.util.Random instead of SecureRandom and avoiding platform-detection in return?

[ChristopherSchultz]

I can probably roll-back that change; you're right, it's not particularly security-sensitive. I was trying to get the most-secure random number I could without resorting to Java APIs that require a particular version of Java(e.g. java.security.SecureRandom.getInstanceStrong, which requires Java 1.8).
