EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      datefmt_get_pattern(3) example

	      <?php
	      $fmt = datefmt_create(
		  'en_US',
		  IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
		  IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
		  'America/Los_Angeles',
		  IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN,
		  'MM/dd/yyyy'
	      );
	      echo 'pattern of the formatter is : ' . datefmt_get_pattern($fmt);
	      echo 'First Formatted output with pattern is ' . datefmt_format($fmt, 0);
	      datefmt_set_pattern($fmt,'yyyymmdd hh:mm:ss z');
	      echo 'Now pattern of the formatter is : ' . datefmt_get_pattern($fmt);
	      echo 'Second Formatted output with pattern is ' . datefmt_format($fmt, 0);

	      ?>

       Example #2

	      OO example

	      <?php
	      $fmt = new IntlDateFormatter(
		  'en_US',
		  IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
		  IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
		  'America/Los_Angeles',
		  IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN,
		  'MM/dd/yyyy'
	      );
	      echo 'pattern of the formatter is : ' . $fmt->getPattern();
	      echo 'First Formatted output is ' . $fmt->format(0);
	      $fmt->setPattern('yyyymmdd hh:mm:ss z');
	      echo 'Now pattern of the formatter is : ' . $fmt->getPattern();
	      echo 'Second Formatted output is ' . $fmt->format(0);
	      ?>

       The above example will output:

       pattern of the formatter is : MM/dd/yyyy
       First Formatted output is 12/31/1969
       Now pattern of the formatter is : yyyymmdd hh:mm:ss z
       Second Formatted output is 19690031 04:00:00 PST

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.
