Struct GlobalRandCtx 

pub struct GlobalRandCtx(/* private fields */);

A borrowed handle to one of the process-wide global DRBGs.

Obtained from RandCtx::public or RandCtx::private_global.

Does not implement Clone or Drop — the global DRBG is owned by the OpenSSL runtime and must not be freed through this handle. Implements Deref<Target = RandCtx> so all read-only RandCtx operations are available, and as_rand_ctx() provides a &RandCtx to pass as a parent to RandCtx::new.

Implementations

impl GlobalRandCtx

pub fn as_rand_ctx(&self) -> &RandCtx

Borrow as &RandCtx for use as the parent argument in RandCtx::new.

Methods from Deref<Target = RandCtx>

pub fn strength(&self) -> u32

Security strength of this DRBG instance in bits.

pub fn state(&self) -> RandState

Current lifecycle state of this DRBG context.

Returns RandState::Ready after a successful Self::instantiate.
