DateTime::setTime() example
Object oriented style
<?php $date = new DateTime('2001-01-01'); $date->setTime(14, 55); echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n"; $date->setTime(14, 55, 24); echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n"; ?>
Procedural style
<?php $date = date_create('2001-01-01'); date_time_set($date, 14, 55); echo date_format($date, 'Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n"; date_time_set($date, 14, 55, 24); echo date_format($date, 'Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n"; ?>
The above examples will output something similar to:
2001-01-01 14:55:00 2001-01-01 14:55:24
Values exceeding ranges are added to their parent values
<?php $date = new DateTime('2001-01-01'); $date->setTime(14, 55, 24); echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n"; $date->setTime(14, 55, 65); echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n"; $date->setTime(14, 65, 24); echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n"; $date->setTime(25, 55, 24); echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s') . "\n"; ?>
The above example will output:
2001-01-01 14:55:24 2001-01-01 14:56:05 2001-01-01 15:05:24 2001-01-02 01:55:24
