mcrypt_get_iv_size — Returns the size of the IV belonging to a specific cipher/mode combination
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.
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().
cipherUna de las constantes MCRYPT_nombredelcifrado, o el nombre del algoritmo como string.
modeUna de las constantes MCRYPT_MODE_nombredelmodo, o una de las siguientes strings: "ecb", "cbc", "cfb", "ofb", "nofb" o "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.
