Or, more succinctly, I am using the default system timezone, which was set to Europe/London when I installed this system.

Howto: easy date range iteration/counting on GNU systems in the shell

Should work in any shell, but requires GNU date, although GNU date seems only to be happy for input dates between 1902 and 2037, inclusive (49673 days). Assume $a and $b hold two dates, e.g. set a=2010-03-27 set b=2010-04-04 Marginally faster: iterator: seq -f "$a +%1.0f days" 1 50000 |... (0 Replies)

IntlDateFormatter::formatObject - Formats an object

	Object oriented style

SYNOPSIS
publicstatic string IntlDateFormatter::formatObject (object $object, [mixed $format = NULL], [string $locale = NULL]) DESCRIPTION
Procedural style string datefmt_format_object (object $object, [mixed $format = NULL], [string $locale = NULL]) This function allows formatting an IntlCalendar or DateTime object without first explicitly creating a IntlDateFormatter object. The temporary IntlDateFormatter that will be created will take the timezone from the passed in object. The timezone database bundled with PHP will not be used - ICU's will be used instead. The timezone identifier used in DateTime objects must therefore also exist in ICU's database. PARAMETERS
o $object - An object of type IntlCalendar or DateTime. The timezone information in the object will be used. o $format - How to format the date/time. This can either be an array with two elements (first the date style, then the time style, these being one of the constants IntlDateFormatter::NONE, IntlDateFormatter::SHORT, IntlDateFormatter::MEDIUM, IntlDateFormatter::LONG, IntlDateFormatter::FULL), a long with the value of one of these constants (in which case it will be used both for the time and the date) or a string with the format described in the ICU documentation. If NULL, the default style will be used. o $locale - The locale to use, or NULL to use the default one. RETURN VALUES
A string with result or FALSE on failure. EXAMPLES
Example #1 datefmt_format_object(3) examples <?php /* default timezone is irrelevant; timezone taken from the object */ ini_set('date.timezone', 'UTC'); /* default locale is taken from this ini setting */ ini_set('intl.default_locale', 'fr_FR'); $cal = IntlCalendar::fromDateTime("2013-06-06 17:05:06 Europe/Dublin"); echo "default: ", IntlDateFormatter::formatObject($cal), " "; echo "long $format (full): ", IntlDateFormatter::formatObject($cal, IntlDateFormatter::FULL), " "; echo "array $format (none, full): ", IntlDateFormatter::formatObject($cal, array( IntlDateFormatter::NONE, IntlDateFormatter::FULL)), " "; echo "string $format (d 'of' MMMM y): ", IntlDateFormatter::formatObject($cal, "d 'of' MMMM y", 'en_US'), " "; echo "with DateTime: ", IntlDateFormatter::formatObject( new DateTime("2013-09-09 09:09:09 Europe/Madrid"), IntlDateFormatter::FULL, 'es_ES'), " "; The above example will output: default: 6 juin 2013 17:05:06 long $format (full): jeudi 6 juin 2013 17:05:06 heure d'ete irlandaise array $format (none, full): 17:05:06 heure d'ete irlandaise string $format (d 'of' MMMM y): 6 of June 2013 with DateTime: lunes, 9 de septiembre de 2013 09:09:09 Hora de verano de Europa central PHP Documentation Group DATEFMT_FORMAT_OBJECT(3)
