Description

Some ciphers like blowfish accept key lengths up to 448 bits where 128 is the default, others have fixed sized key lengths.

Important: The cipherNames function is part of the SSL & Encryption library. To ensure that the function works in a standalone application, you must include this custom library when you create your standalone. In the Inclusions pane of the Standalone Application Settings window, make sure the "SSL & Encryption" library checkbox is checked.
