IntlDateFormatter::setLenient -- datefmt_set_lenient — Set the leniency of the parser

Description

Object oriented style

boolean IntlDateFormatter::setLenient ( boolean $lenient )

Procedural style

boolean datefmt_set_lenient ( IntlDateFormatter $fmt , boolean $lenient )

Define if the parser is strict or lenient in interpretting inputs that do not match the pattern exactly. Enabling lenient parsing allows the parser to accept otherwise flawed date or time patterns, parsing as much as possible to obtain a value. Extra space, unrecognized tokens, or invalid values ("Feburary 30th") are not accepted.

Parameters

fmt: The formatter resource
lenient: Sets whether the parser is lenient or not, default is FALSE (strict).

Return Values

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

Examples

Example #1 datefmt_set_lenient() example

 <?php
$fmt = datefmt_create(  "en_US" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL,IntlDateFormatter::FULL,'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GREGO
RIAN  ,"dd/mm/yyyy");
echo "lenient of the formatter is : ";
if( $fmt->isLenient() ){
        echo('TRUE');
}else{
        echo('FALSE');
}
datefmt_parse($fmt,"35/13/1971");
echo "\n Trying to do parse('35/13/1971').Result is : " .datefmt_parse($fmt,"35/13/1971");
if( intl_get_error_code() !=0 ){
        echo "Error_msg is : ".intl_get_error_message();
        echo "Error_code is : ".intl_get_error_code();
}
datefmt_set_lenient($fmt,false);
echo "Now lenient of the formatter is : ";
if( $fmt->isLenient() ){
        echo('TRUE');
}else{
        echo('FALSE');
}
datefmt_parse($fmt,"35/13/1971");
echo "\n Trying to do parse('35/13/1971').Result is : " .datefmt_parse($fmt,"35/13/1971");
if( intl_get_error_code() !=0 ){
        echo "Error_msg is : ".intl_get_error_message();
        echo "Error_code is : ".intl_get_error_code();
}

?>

Example #2 OO example

 <?php
$fmt = new IntlDateFormatter( "en_US" ,IntlDateFormatter::FULL,IntlDateFormatter::FULL,'America/Los_Angeles',IntlDateFormatter::GRE
GORIAN,"dd/mm/yyyy"  );
echo "lenient of the formatter is : ";
if( $fmt->isLenient() ){
        echo('TRUE');
}else{
        echo('FALSE');
}
$fmt->parse("35/13/1971");
echo "\n Trying to do parse('35/13/1971').Result is : " .$fmt->parse("35/13/1971");
if( intl_get_error_code() !=0 ){
        echo "Error_msg is : ".intl_get_error_message();
        echo "Error_code is : ".intl_get_error_code();
}

$fmt->setLenient(FALSE);
echo "Now lenient of the formatter is : ";
if( $fmt->isLenient() ){
        echo('TRUE');
}else{
        echo('FALSE');
}
$fmt->parse("35/13/1971");
echo "\n Trying to do parse('35/13/1971').Result is : " .$fmt->parse("35/13/1971");
if( intl_get_error_code() !=0 ){
        echo "Error_msg is : ".intl_get_error_message();
        echo "Error_code is : ".intl_get_error_code();
}

?>
