Description

Object-oriented style

public true IntlCalendar::set(int $field, int $value)
public true IntlCalendar::set(
    int $year,
    int $month,
    int $dayOfMonth = NULL,
    int $hour = NULL,
    int $minute = NULL,
    int $second = NULL
)

Procedural style

true intlcal_set(IntlCalendar $cal, int $field, int $value)
bool intlcal_set(
    IntlCalendar $cal,
    int $year,
    int $month,
    int $dayOfMonth = NULL,
    int $hour = NULL,
    int $minute = NULL,
    int $second = NULL
)

Sets either a specific field to the given value, or sets at once several common fields. The range of values that are accepted depend on whether the calendar is using the lenient mode.

For fields that conflict, the fields that are set later have priority.

This method cannot be called with exactly four arguments.

Parameters

cal

field

value

The new value of the given field.

year

The new value for IntlCalendar::FIELD_YEAR.

month

The new value for IntlCalendar::FIELD_MONTH. The month sequence is zero-based, i.e., January is represented by 0, February by 1, …, December is 11 and Undecember (if the calendar has it) is 12.

dayOfMonth

The new value for IntlCalendar::FIELD_DAY_OF_MONTH.

hour

The new value for IntlCalendar::FIELD_HOUR_OF_DAY.

Examples

Example #1 IntlCalendar::set

<?php
ini_set('date.timezone', 'Europe/Lisbon');
ini_set('intl.default_locale', 'pt_PT');

//Calls made later have priority
$cal = new IntlGregorianCalendar(2013, 6 /* July */, 1);
$cal->set(IntlCalendar::FIELD_YEAR, 2012);
$cal->set(IntlCalendar::FIELD_EXTENDED_YEAR, 2011);
var_dump(IntlDateFormatter::formatObject($cal));


$cal = new IntlGregorianCalendar(2013, 6 /* July */, 1);
$cal->set(IntlCalendar::FIELD_YEAR, 2012);
$cal->set(IntlCalendar::FIELD_EXTENDED_YEAR, 2011);
//the time has not been recalculated yet. If we clear the extended year,
//the year set before will be used
$cal->clear(IntlCalendar::FIELD_EXTENDED_YEAR);
var_dump(IntlDateFormatter::formatObject($cal));

The above example will output:

string(20) "01/07/2011, 00:00:00"
string(20) "01/07/2012, 00:00:00"
