Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-08-09 12:43:47] requinix@php.net 7.4 hasn't been released yet. The documentation covers stable releases, not the latest betas. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-08-09 12:24:23] beebware at gmail dot com Description: ------------ --- From manual page: https://php.net/function.password-needs-rehash And https://www.php.net/password_hash --- Currently reads: password_hash ( string $password , int $algo [, array $options ] ) : string password_needs_rehash ( string $hash , int $algo [, array $options ] ) : bool however, PHP 7.4 has changed the password algorithms to strings so it should be: password_hash ( string $password , int|string $algo [, array $options ] ) : string password_needs_rehash ( string $hash , int|string $algo [, array $options ] ) : bool (or mixed) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78390&edit=1
