IntlCalendar::toDateTime
(PHP 5 >= 5.5.0, PHP 7, PHP 8, PECL >= 3.0.0a2)
IntlCalendar::toDateTime — Convert an IntlCalendar into a DateTime object
Description
Object-oriented style
Procedural style
Create a DateTime object that represents the same instant (up to second precision, with a rounding error of less than 1 second) and has an analog timezone to this object (the difference being DateTimeʼs timezone will be backed by PHPʼs timezone while IntlCalendarʼs timezone is backed by ICUʼs).
Parameters
-
calendar
-
An IntlCalendar instance.
Return Values
A DateTime object with the same timezone as this
object (though using PHPʼs database instead of ICUʼs) and the same time,
except for the smaller precision (second precision instead of millisecond).
Returns false
on failure.
Examples
Example #1 IntlCalendar::toDateTime()
<?php
ini_set('date.timezone', 'UTC');
ini_set('intl.default_locale', 'pt_PT');
$cal = IntlCalendar::createInstance('Europe/Lisbon'); //current time
$dt = $cal->toDateTime();
print_r($dt);
The above example will output:
DateTime Object ( [date] => 2013-07-02 00:29:13 [timezone_type] => 3 [timezone] => Europe/Lisbon )
