(PHP 5 >= 5.3.0, PHP 7, PHP 8, PECL intl >= 1.0.0)

IntlDateFormatter::localtime -- datefmt_localtime — Parse string to a field-based time value

Description

Object-oriented style

public IntlDateFormatter::localtime(string $string, int &$offset = null): array|false

Procedural style

datefmt_localtime(IntlDateFormatter $formatter, string $string, int &$offset = null): array|false

Converts string $value to a field-based time value ( an array of various fields), starting at $parse_pos and consuming as much of the input value as possible.

Parameters

formatter: The formatter resource
string: string to convert to a time
offset: Position at which to start the parsing in $value (zero-based). If no error occurs before $value is consumed, $parse_pos will contain -1 otherwise it will contain the position at which parsing ended . If $parse_pos > strlen($value), the parse fails immediately.

Return Values

Localtime compatible array of integers : contains 24 hour clock value in tm_hour field, or false on failure.

Examples

Example #1 datefmt_localtime() example


<?php

$fmt = datefmt_create(
    'en_US',
    IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
    IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
    'America/Los_Angeles',
    IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN
);
$arr = datefmt_localtime($fmt, 'Wednesday, December 31, 1969 4:00:00 PM PT', 0);
echo 'First parsed output is ';
if ($arr) {
    foreach ($arr as $key => $value) {
        echo "$key : $value , ";
    }
}

?>

Example #2 OO example


<?php
$fmt = new IntlDateFormatter(
    'en_US',
    IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
    IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
    'America/Los_Angeles',
    IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN
);
$arr = $fmt->localtime('Wednesday, December 31, 1969 4:00:00 PM PT', 0);
echo 'First parsed output is ';
if ($arr) {
    foreach ($arr as $key => $value) {
        echo "$key : $value , ";
    }
}

?>

The above example will output:

First parsed output is tm_sec : 0 , tm_min : 0 , tm_hour : 16 , tm_year : 1969 , 
tm_mday : 31 , tm_wday : 4 , tm_yday : 365 , tm_mon : 11 , tm_isdst : 0 ,
