mcrypt_get_iv_size — Returns the size of the IV belonging to a specific cipher/mode combination
$cipher
, string $mode
)
Gets the size of the IV belonging to a specific
cipher/mode combination.
It is more useful to use the mcrypt_enc_get_iv_size() function as this uses the resource returned by mcrypt_module_open().
cipher
One of the MCRYPT_ciphername constants, or the name of the algorithm as string.
mode
One of the MCRYPT_MODE_modename constants, or one of the following strings: "ecb", "cbc", "cfb", "ofb", "nofb" or "stream".
The IV is ignored in ECB mode as this mode does not require it. You will need to have the same IV (think: starting point) both at encryption and decryption stages, otherwise your encryption will fail.
Returns the size of the Initialization Vector (IV) in bytes. On error the
function returns FALSE. If the IV is ignored in the specified cipher/mode
combination zero is returned.
