My app needs to generate a hex string to use as a session ID. Java's SecureRandom doesn't seem to be working ("java/lang/NoClassDefFoundError: java/security/SecureRandom: Cannot create class in system package")

I thought of doing something like this:

byte[]  resBuf = new byte[50];
new Random().nextBytes(resBuf);
String  resStr = new String(Hex.encode(resBuf));

But the method nextBytes(byte[] bytes) isn't available for some strange reason.

Does anyone have a means of generating a random hex number in Java ME/J2ME?

Many thanks.

Edit: The above generator seems to work when using Bouncy Castle lcrypto-j2me-145 (but not lcrypto-j2me-147).
