Gilles created RNG-21:
-------------------------

             Summary: Interface "RestorableUniformRandomProvider"
                 Key: RNG-21
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RNG-21
             Project: Commons RNG
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Gilles
            Assignee: Gilles
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.0


In order to make usage of the "save/restore" functionality slightly more intuitive, a new interface will extend {{UniformRandomProvider}} with the following methods:
{code}
RandomSourceState saveState();
void restoreState(RandomSourceState state);
{code}
where "RandomSourceState" is a maker interface (whose concrete implementation is the {{RandomSource.State}} class).

Those methods will replace their counterpart currently defined in class {{RandomSource}}.
