scootstah Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Generally the manual will tell you these things. For hash_hmac, it is available since PHP 5.1.2. If you aren't running at leash 5.1.2 you could use the PECL module.

EDIT: But if you have hash(), then you also have hash_hmac(). Because they are part of the same package and were introduced to PHP in the same version (5.1.2).

I am chatting with GoDaddy and want to be sure I have it BEFORE I implement your fancy code in my other thread!

scootstah Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 phpinfo() doesn't show every function known to PHP. Do you have "hash"? If so, that is referring to the hash package which contains hash_hmac, among other hashing functions. Once again if your PHP version is >= 5.1.2, you have hash_hmac().

Pikachu2000 Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Did you look at the manual entry for function_exists? It can't hurt to learn how to use it. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/256093-hash_hmac/#findComment-1312851 Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about this... <?php //function_exists — Return TRUE if the given function has been defined //bool function_exists ( string $function_name ) //Checks the list of defined functions, both built-in (internal) and user-defined, for function_name. $functionToCheck = 'hash_hmac'; if (function_exists($functionToCheck)){ echo "Function '" . $functionToCheck . "' exists."; }else{ echo "Function '" . $functionToCheck . "' does NOT exist."; } ?> Debbie Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/256093-hash_hmac/#findComment-1312856 Share on other sites More sharing options...
