Problem
You want to change the cipher the encryption component uses.
Solution
Use Crypt::setCipher().
Crypt::setCipher($new_cipher);
Discussion
The default cipher method is rijndael-256.
You can get a list of available ciphers with a call to mcrypt_list_algorithms().
Here's a partial list:
- cast-128
- gost
- rijndael-128
- twofish
- arcfour
- cast-256
- loki97
- rijndael-192
- saferplus
- wake
- blowfish-compat
- des
- rijndael-256
This cipher will be used for subsequent Crypt::encrypt() and Crypt::decrypt() calls.
But only in the current request.
