IntlCalendar::clear

Clear a field or all fields

Description

Object oriented style

public bool IntlCalendar::clear ([ int $field = NULL ] )

Procedural style

bool intlcal_clear ( IntlCalendar $cal [, int $field = NULL ] )

Clears either all of the fields or a specific field. A cleared field is marked as unset, giving it the lowest priority against overlapping fields or even default values when calculating the time. Additionally, its value is set to 0, though given the fieldʼs low priority, its value may have been internally set to another value by the time the field has finished been queried.

Parameters

cal: The IntlCalendar resource.
field: One of the IntlCalendar date/time field constants. These are integer values between 0 and IntlCalendar::FIELD_COUNT.

Return Values

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure. Failure can only occur is invalid arguments are provided.

The above example will output:
