Represents an invalid password hash.

It is represented as the empty string (i.e., a password hash with no type).

No two invalid passwords are equal. Comparing anything to an invalid password will return false.

Member Function Documentation

◆ crypt()

InvalidPassword::crypt (   $password)

Hash a password and store the result in this object.

The result of the password hash should be put into the internal state of the hash object.

Parameters
string$passwordPassword to hash
Exceptions
PasswordErrorIf an internal error occurs in hashing

Reimplemented from Password.

Definition at line 33 of file InvalidPassword.php.

◆ equals()

InvalidPassword::equals (   $other)

Compare one Password object to this object.

By default, do a timing-safe string comparison on the result of Password::toString() for each object. This can be overridden to do custom comparison, but it is not recommended unless necessary.

Parameters
Password | string$otherThe other password
Returns
bool True if equal, false otherwise

Reimplemented from Password.

Definition at line 40 of file InvalidPassword.php.

◆ needsUpdate()

InvalidPassword::needsUpdate ( )

Determine if the hash needs to be updated.

Returns
bool True if needs update, false otherwise

Reimplemented from Password.

Definition at line 44 of file InvalidPassword.php.

◆ toString()

InvalidPassword::toString ( )

Convert this hash to a string that can be stored in the database.

The resulting string should be considered the seralized representation of this hash, i.e., if the return value were recycled back into PasswordFactory::newFromCiphertext, the returned object would be equivalent to this; also, if two objects return the same value from this function, they are considered equivalent.

Returns
string
