IntlDateFormatter::parse

(PHP 5 >= 5.3.0, PHP 7, PECL intl >= 1.0.0)
Parse string to a timestamp value
public int IntlDateFormatter::parse ( string $value [, int &$position ] )

Object oriented style

Procedural style

int datefmt_parse ( IntlDateFormatter $fmt , string $value [, int &$position ] )

Converts string $value to an incremental time value, starting at $parse_pos and consuming as much of the input value as possible.

Parameters:
fmt

The formatter resource

value

string to convert to a time

position

Position at which to start the parsing in $value (zero-based). If no error occurs before $value is consumed, $parse_pos will contain -1 otherwise it will contain the position at which parsing ended (and the error occurred). This variable will contain the end position if the parse fails. If $parse_pos > strlen($value), the parse fails immediately.

Returns:

timestamp parsed value, or FALSE if value can't be parsed.
