Mcrypt_cbc with TripleDES for vb6

[kevin12]

Hi, im a bit new to vb6. Thing is I have to convert this php application to vb6 and im a bit stuck on the decryption module. below is the code, could you please give me some guidelines on how to go about this conversion to vb6. I tried google for the past weeks but no success.

The code below is in php

Thanx

function decrypt($dealerID, $fname)
{

	DEFINE ("Keysize",$dealerID);

	$iv = $dealerID;

	$text_1 = file_get_contents($fname);

	$decrypted = mcrypt_cbc(MCRYPT_TripleDES, (Keysize), $text_1, MCRYPT_DECRYPT, $iv);

	return $decrypted;

}

What does this function file_get_contents do in PHP ?

It gets the contents of the file being decrypted, the characters inside the file...:)
