PHP 8.3.4 Released!

mcrypt_get_block_size

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7 < 7.2.0, PECL mcrypt >= 1.0.0)

mcrypt_get_block_sizeGets the block size of the specified cipher

Advertencia

Esta función ha sido declarada OBSOLETA a partir de PHP 7.1.0 y será ELIMINADA a partir de PHP 7.2.0. Su uso está totalmente desaconsejado.

Descripción

mcrypt_get_block_size(int $cipher): int|false
mcrypt_get_block_size(string $cipher, string $mode): int|false

The first prototype is when linked against libmcrypt 2.2.x, the second when linked against libmcrypt 2.4.x or 2.5.x.

mcrypt_get_block_size() is used to get the size of a block of the specified cipher (in combination with an encryption mode).

It is more useful to use the mcrypt_enc_get_block_size() function as this uses the resource returned by mcrypt_module_open().

Parámetros

cipher

Una de las constantes MCRYPT_nombredelcifrado, o el nombre del algoritmo como string.

mode

Una de las constantes MCRYPT_MODE_nombredelmodo, o una de las siguientes strings: "ecb", "cbc", "cfb", "ofb", "nofb" o "stream".

Valores devueltos

Returns the algorithm block size in bytes o false en caso de error.

Ejemplos

Ejemplo #1 mcrypt_get_block_size() example

This example shows how to use this function when linked against libmcrypt 2.4.x and 2.5.x.

<?php

echo mcrypt_get_block_size('tripledes', 'ecb'); // 8

?>

You should explain that the block size is return in BYTES, not the more commonly used unit, bits. Many readers are not going to know the DES block size and figure this out on their own.
