Stil procedural

datefmt_create ( string `$locale` , int `$datetype` , int `$timetype` [, mixed `$timezone` = NULL [, mixed `$calendar` = NULL [, string `$pattern` = "" ]]] ) : IntlDateFormatter

Create a date formatter.

### Parametri

`locale`

  Locale to use when formatting or parsing or `NULL` to use the value specified in the ini setting intl.default_locale.

`datetype`

  Date type to use (`none`, `short`, `medium`, `long`, `full`). This is one of the IntlDateFormatter constants. It can also be `NULL`, in which case ICUʼs default date type will be used.

`timetype`

  Time type to use (`none`, `short`, `medium`, `long`, `full`). This is one of the IntlDateFormatter constants. It can also be `NULL`, in which case ICUʼs default time type will be used.

`timezone`

  Time zone ID. The default (and the one used if `NULL` is given) is the one returned by date_default_timezone_get() or, if applicable, that of the IntlCalendar object passed for the `calendar` parameter. This ID must be a valid identifier on ICUʼs database or an ID representing an explicit offset, such as GMT-05:30.

  This can also be an IntlTimeZone or a DateTimeZone object.

`calendar`

  Calendar to use for formatting or parsing. The default value is `NULL`, which corresponds to `IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN`. This can either be one of the IntlDateFormatter calendar constants or an IntlCalendar. Any IntlCalendar object passed will be clone; it will not be changed by the IntlDateFormatter. This will determine the calendar type used (gregorian, islamic, persian, etc.) and, if `NULL` is given for the `timezone` parameter, also the timezone used.

`pattern`

  Optional pattern to use when formatting or parsing. Possible patterns are documented at » http://userguide.icu-project.org/formatparse/datetime.

### Valorile întoarse

The created IntlDateFormatter or `FALSE` in case of failure.

### Istoricul schimbărilor

Versiune | Descriere
--- | ---
5.5.0/PECL 3.0.0 | An IntlCalendar object is allowed for `calendar`. Objects of type IntlTimeZone and DateTimeZone are allowed for `timezone`. Invalid timezone identifiers (including empty strings) are no longer allowed for `timezone`. If `NULL` is given for `timezone`, the timezone identifier given by date_default_timezone_get() will be used instead of ICUʼs default.

### Exemple

Example #1 datefmt_create() example

`<?php
$fmt = datefmt_create( "en_US" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles', IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN );
echo "First Formatted output is ".datefmt_format( $fmt , 0);
$fmt = datefmt_create( "de-DE" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN );
echo "Second Formatted output is ".datefmt_format( $fmt , 0);
$fmt = datefmt_create( "en_US" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN ,"MM/dd/yyyy");
echo "First Formatted output with pattern is ".datefmt_format( $fmt , 0);
$fmt = datefmt_create( "de-DE" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN ,"MM/dd/yyyy");
echo "Second Formatted output with pattern is ".datefmt_format( $fmt , 0);
?>`

Example #2 OO example

`<?php
$fmt = new IntlDateFormatter( "en_US" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN );
echo "First Formatted output is ".$fmt->format(0);
$fmt = new IntlDateFormatter( "de-DE" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN );
echo "Second Formatted output is ".$fmt->format(0);
$fmt = new IntlDateFormatter( "en_US" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN ,"MM/dd/yyyy");
echo "First Formatted output with pattern is ".$fmt->format(0);
$fmt = new IntlDateFormatter( "de-DE" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL, IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN , "MM/dd/yyyy");
echo "Second Formatted output with pattern is ".$fmt->format(0);
?>`
