Description

bool mcrypt_generic_end ( resource $td )

Warning

mcrypt_generic_deinit should be used instead of this function, as it can cause crashes when used with mcrypt_module_close due to multiple buffer frees.

This function terminates encryption specified by the encryption descriptor (td). Actually it clears all buffers, and closes all the modules used. Returns FALSE on error, or TRUE on success.
