Warning

This function has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 7.1.0. Relying on this function is highly discouraged.

Description

array mcrypt_list_algorithms ([ string $lib_dir = ini_get("mcrypt.algorithms_dir") ] )

Gets the list of all supported algorithms in the lib_dir parameter.

Parameters

lib_dir

Specifies the directory where all algorithms are located. If not specified, the value of the mcrypt.algorithms_dir php.ini directive is used.

Return Values

Returns an array with all the supported algorithms.

Examples

Example #1 mcrypt_list_algorithms Example

<?php
    $algorithms 
mcrypt_list_algorithms("/usr/local/lib/libmcrypt");

    foreach (
$algorithms as $cipher) {
        echo 
"$cipher<br />\n";
    }
?>

The example above will produce a list with all supported algorithms in the "/usr/local/lib/libmcrypt" directory.
