</simpara>
<simpara>
Cracklib is useful in testing the 'strength' of a password that checks
length, use of upper and lower case and a check against the specified CrackLib
dictionary. CrackLib will also give helpful diagnostic messages that will
help 'strengthen' the password.
</simpara>
<para>
This example shows how to open a CrackLib dictionary, test a given password,
retrieve any diagnostic messages, and close the dictionary.
<example>
<title>CrackLib example</title>
<programlisting role="php">
<![CDATA[
<?php
// Open CrackLib Dictionary
$dictionary = crack_opendict('/usr/local/lib/pw_dict')
or die('Unable to open CrackLib dictionary');
// Perform password check
$check = crack_check($dictionary, 'gx9A2s0x');
// Retrieve messages
$diag = crack_getlastmessage();
echo $diag; // 'strong password'
// Close dictionary
crack_closedict($dictionary);
?>
]]>
</programlisting>
</example>
</para>
<note>
<para>
If <function>crack_check</function> returns &true;,
<function>crack_getlastmessage</function> will return 'strong password'.
