length - the size of the byte array returned.

Returns:

random array of bytes with the length specified.

randomBytes

public static byte[] randomBytes(Random r)

Random array of bytes with a random length. The length should be no greater that 4k.

Parameters:

r - uses the randomizer provided to generate the random data.

Returns:

a byte array no bigger than 4k filled with random data.

randomBytes
