IntlDateFormatter::create - Create a date formatter

	Object oriented style

SYNOPSIS
publicstatic IntlDateFormatter IntlDateFormatter::create (string $locale, int $datetype, int $timetype, [mixed $timezone = NULL], [mixed $calendar = NULL], [string $pattern = ""]) DESCRIPTION
Object oriented style (constructor) IntlDateFormatter::__construct (string $locale, int $datetype, int $timetype, [mixed $timezone = NULL], [mixed $calendar = NULL], [string $pattern = ""]) Procedural style IntlDateFormatter datefmt_create (string $locale, int $datetype, int $timetype, [mixed $timezone = NULL], [mixed $calendar = NULL], [string $pattern = ""]) Create a date formatter. PARAMETERS
o $locale - Locale to use when formatting or parsing or NULL to use the value specified in the ini setting intl.default_locale. o $datetype - Date type to use ( none, short, medium, long, full). This is one of the IntlDateFormatter constants. It can also be NULL, in which case ICUs default date type will be used. o $timetype - Time type to use ( none, short, medium, long, full). This is one of the IntlDateFormatter constants. It can also be NULL, in which case ICUs default time type will be used. o $timezone - Time zone ID. The default (and the one used if NULL is given) is the one returned by date_default_timezone_get(3) or, if appli- cable, that of the IntlCalendar object passed for the $calendar parameter. This ID must be a valid identifier on ICUs database or an ID representing an explicit offset, such as GMT-05:30. This can also be an IntlTimeZone or a DateTimeZone object. o $calendar - Calendar to use for formatting or parsing. The default value is NULL, which corresponds to IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN. This can either be one of the IntlDateFormatter calendar constants or an IntlCalendar. Any IntlCalendar object passed will be clone; it will not be changed by the IntlDateFormatter. This will determine the calendar type used (gregorian, islamic, persian, etc.) and, if NULL is given for the $timezone parameter, also the timezone used. o $pattern - Optional pattern to use when formatting or parsing. Possible patterns are documented at http://userguide.icu-project.org/format- parse/datetime. RETURN VALUES
The created IntlDateFormatter or FALSE in case of failure. CHANGELOG
