IntlCalendar::createInstance
(PHP 5 >= 5.5.0, PHP 7, PECL >= 3.0.0a1)
IntlCalendar::createInstance — Create a new IntlCalendar
Description
Object oriented style
public static IntlCalendar::createInstance ([ mixed $timeZone = NULL [, string $locale = "" ]] ) : IntlCalendar
Procedural style
intlcal_create_instance ([ mixed $timeZone = NULL [, string $locale = "" ]] ) : IntlCalendar
Given a timezone and locale, this method creates an IntlCalendar object. This factory method may return a subclass of IntlCalendar.
The calendar created will represent the time instance at which it was created, based on the system time. The fields can all be cleared by calling IntCalendar::clear() with no arguments. See also IntlGregorianCalendar::__construct().
Parameters
-
timeZone -
The timezone to use.
-
null, in which case the default timezone will be used, as specified in the ini setting date.timezone or through the function date_default_timezone_set() and as returned by date_default_timezone_get(). -
An IntlTimeZone, which will be used directly.
-
A DateTimeZone. Its identifier will be extracted and an ICU timezone object will be created; the timezone will be backed by ICUʼs database, not PHPʼs.
-
A string, which should be a valid ICU timezone identifier. See IntlTimeZone::createTimeZoneIDEnumeration(). Raw offsets such as
"GMT+08:30"are also accepted.
-
-
locale -
A locale to use or
nullto use the default locale.
Return Values
The created IntlCalendar instance or null on failure.

Example #1 IntlCalendar::createInstance()
<?php
ini_set('intl.default_locale', 'es_ES');
ini_set('date.timezone', 'Europe/Madrid');
$cal = IntlCalendar::createInstance();
echo "No arguments\n";
var_dump(get_class($cal),
IntlDateFormatter::formatObject($cal, IntlDateFormatter::FULL));
echo "\n";
echo "Explicit timezone\n";
$cal = IntlCalendar::createInstance(IntlTimeZone::getGMT());
var_dump(get_class($cal),
IntlDateFormatter::formatObject($cal, IntlDateFormatter::FULL));
echo "\n";
echo "Explicit locale (with calendar)\n";
$cal = IntlCalendar::createInstance(NULL, 'es_ES@calendar=persian');
var_dump(get_class($cal),
IntlDateFormatter::formatObject($cal, IntlDateFormatter::FULL)); The above example will output:
