Unfortunately the developers refuse to support industry PKCS#7 padding mode so users will have to write that code themselves. This lack of PKCS#7 support cases a substantial number of interoperability problems. One may wonder why this is, possibilities include: 1. The mcrypt developers do not care 2. The mcrypt developers have given up 3. The mcrypt developers are not capable 4. The mcrypt developers want to make interoperability hard 5. The mcrypt developers are bozos Choose one or more. Sorry but this post is just as ridiculous as not providing PKCS#7 padding support. Of course I expect this post to be deleted, it is just an attempt to shake the developers up a little but I suspect that will make no difference since I believe #1 above. ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 107.131.161.111 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.mcrypt-module-open.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/118716 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118716/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118716/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118716/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118716/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118716/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118716/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118716 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/118716 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
