Dadagen has been embeded into a Simple JMeter Plugin that allows you to generate random data for your test threads.
You can download the JMeter Plugin Jar from bintray - JMeter Plugin 0.2.9 You will need to put it into you JMETER_HOME/lib/ext
You will then have a new Config Element called "Dadagen Random Data Generator"
Hopefully the configuration is very self explanatory.

And here is a sample of the resulting "variables" ![JMeter Vars] (../assets/jmeter_dadagen_random_gen_results.png)
Enjoy!!
