IntlChar::isIDPart
(PHP 7, PHP 8)
IntlChar::isIDPart — Check if code point is permissible in an identifier
Description
$codepoint
): ?boolDetermines if the specified character is permissible in an identifier.
true
for characters with general categories "L" (letters), "Nl" (letter numbers), "Nd" (decimal digits),
"Mc" and "Mn" (combining marks), "Pc" (connecting punctuation), and u_isIDIgnorable(c).
Note:
This is almost the same as Unicode's ID_Continue (
IntlChar::PROPERTY_ID_CONTINUE
) except that Unicode recommends to ignore Cf which is less than IntlChar::isIDIgnorable().
Parameters
-
codepoint
-
The int codepoint value (e.g.
0x2603
for U+2603 SNOWMAN), or the character encoded as a UTF-8 string (e.g."\u"
)
Return Values
Returns true
if
codepoint
is the code point may occur in an identifier, false
if not. Returns null
on failure.
Examples
Example #1 Testing different code points
<?php
var_dump(IntlChar::isIDPart("A"));
var_dump(IntlChar::isIDPart("$"));
var_dump(IntlChar::isIDPart("\n"));
var_dump(IntlChar::isIDPart("\u"));
?>
The above example will output:
bool(true) bool(false) bool(false) bool(false)
