Examples

Example #1 DateTimeImmutable::setTimestamp example

Object-oriented style

<?php
$date = new DateTimeImmutable();
echo $date->format('U = Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n";

$newDate = $date->setTimestamp(1171502725);
echo $newDate->format('U = Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n";

The above example will output something similar to:

1272508903 = 2010-04-28 22:41:43
1171502725 = 2007-02-14 20:25:25
