Apache Commons Lang 3 is the 3rd version of Apache Commons Lang, which provides a host of helper utilities for the java.lang API.

Apache Commons Lang 3 Source Code files are provided in both binary packge (commons-lang3-3.12.0-bin.zip) and source package (commons-lang3-3.12.0-src.zip). You can download them at Apache Commons Lang Website.

Apache Commons Lang 3 Source Code has no dependencies and is compatible with Java 8 and newer versions. You can compile it to generate your own version of Apache Commons Lang 3 JAR file.

/**
 * <p>Generates random {@code String}s.</p>
 *
 * <p><b>Caveat: Instances of {@link Random}, upon which the implementation of this
 * class relies, are not cryptographically secure.</b></p>
 *
 * <p>RandomStringUtils is intended for simple use cases. For more advanced
 * use cases consider using Apache Commons Text's
 * <a href="https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-text/javadocs/api-release/org/apache/commons/text/RandomStringGenerator.html">
 * RandomStringGenerator</a> instead.</p>
 *
 * <p>The Apache Commons project provides
 * <a href="https://commons.apache.org/rng">Commons RNG</a> dedicated to pseudo-random number generation, that may be
 * a better choice for applications with more stringent requirements
 * (performance and/or correctness).</p>
 *
 * <p>Note that <em>private high surrogate</em> characters are ignored.
 * These are Unicode characters that fall between the values 56192 (db80)
 * and 56319 (dbff) as we don't know how to handle them.
 * High and low surrogates are correctly dealt with - that is if a
 * high surrogate is randomly chosen, 55296 (d800) to 56191 (db7f)
 * then it is followed by a low surrogate. If a low surrogate is chosen,
 * 56320 (dc00) to 57343 (dfff) then it is placed after a randomly
 * chosen high surrogate.</p>
