datetime.settimestamp

DATETIME.SETTIMESTAMP(3)						 1						  DATETIME.SETTIMESTAMP(3)

DateTime::setTimestamp - Sets the date and time based on an Unix timestamp

       Object oriented style

SYNOPSIS

       public DateTime DateTime::setTimestamp (int  $unixtimestamp)

DESCRIPTION

       Procedural style
       DateTime date_timestamp_set (DateTime  $object, int  $unixtimestamp)

	Sets the date and time based on an Unix timestamp.

PARAMETERS

	      o $object
		-Procedural style only: A DateTime object returned by date_create(3). The function modifies this object.

	      o $unixtimestamp
		- Unix timestamp representing the date.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns the DateTime object for method chaining or FALSE on failure.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      DateTime.setTimestamp(3) example

	      Object oriented style

	      <?php
	      $date = new DateTime();
	      echo $date->format('U = Y-m-d H:i:s') . "
";

	      $date->setTimestamp(1171502725);
	      echo $date->format('U = Y-m-d H:i:s') . "
";
	      ?>

	      Procedural style

	      <?php
	      $date = date_create();
	      echo date_format($date, 'U = Y-m-d H:i:s') . "
";

	      date_timestamp_set($date, 1171502725);
	      echo date_format($date, 'U = Y-m-d H:i:s') . "
";
	      ?>

	      The above examples will output something similar to:

	      1272508903 = 2010-04-28 22:41:43
	      1171502725 = 2007-02-14 20:25:25

NOTES

	Using the Unix timestamp format to construct a new DateTime object is an alternative when using PHP 5.2, as shown in the example below.

       Example #2

	      DateTime.setTimestamp(3) alternative in PHP 5.2

	      <?php
	      $ts = 1171502725;
	      $date = new DateTime("@$ts");
	      echo $date->format('U = Y-m-d H:i:s') . "
";
	      ?>

	      The above example will output something similar to:

	      1171502725 = 2007-02-14 20:25:25
