PHP Manual: Set whether date/time interpretation is to be lenient

Description

Object-oriented style

public true IntlCalendar::setLenient(bool $lenient)

Procedural style

true intlcal_set_lenient(IntlCalendar $calendar, bool $lenient)

Defines whether the calendar is ‘lenient mode’. In such a mode, some of out-of-bounds values for some fields are accepted, the behavior being similar to that of IntlCalendar::add (i.e., the value wraps around, carrying into more significant fields each time). If the lenient mode is off, then such values will generate an error.

Parameters

calendar: An IntlCalendar instance.
lenient: Use true to activate the lenient mode; false otherwise.

Return Values

Always returns true.

Changelog

Version	Description
8.2.0	The return type is `true` now; previously, it was bool.

Examples

See the example in IntlCalendar::isLenient.
