This documentation applies to version 1.2.0.
The ChaCha20 DRNG is a complete standalone implementation of a deterministic random number generator. It does not need any external cryptographic support.
The version numbers for this library have the following schema: MAJOR.MINOR.PATCHLEVEL
Changes in the major number implies API and ABI incompatible changes, or functional changes that require consumer to be updated (as long as this number is zero, the API is not considered stable and can change without a bump of the major version).
Changes in the minor version are API compatible, but the ABI may change. Functional enhancements only are added. Thus, a consumer can be left unchanged if enhancements are not considered. The consumer only needs to be recompiled.
Patchlevel changes are API / ABI compatible. No functional changes, no enhancements are made. This release is a bug fixe release only. The consumer can be left unchanged and does not need to be recompiled.
