# mcrypt_list_algorithms

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.2)

mcrypt_list_algorithms -- Get an array of all supported ciphers

## Description

``array mcrypt_list_algorithms` (string [lib_dir])`

mcrypt_list_algorithms() is used to get an array of all supported algorithms in the

`lib_dir`. mcrypt_list_algorithms() takes as optional parameter a directory which specifies the directory where all algorithms are located. If not specifies, the value of the mcrypt.algorithms_dir php.ini directive is used.

Example 1. mcrypt_list_algorithms() Example
    <?php
    $algorithms = mcrypt_list_algorithms ("/usr/local/lib/libmcrypt");

    foreach ($algorithms as $cipher) {
      echo $cipher."/n";
    }
    ?>
The above example will produce a list with all supported algorithms in the "/usr/local/lib/libmcrypt" directory.
