Examples

Example #1 msgfmt_parse_message() example

<?php
$fmt = msgfmt_parse_message('en_US', "{0,number,integer} monkeys on {1,number,integer} trees make {2,number} monkeys per tree",
                            "4,560 monkeys on 123 trees make 37.073 monkeys per tree");
var_export($fmt);

$fmt = msgfmt_parse_message('de', "{0,number,integer} Affen auf {1,number,integer} Bäumen sind {2,number} Affen pro Baum", 
                            "4.560 Affen auf 123 Bäumen sind 37,073 Affen pro Baum");
var_export($fmt);
?>

Example #2 OO example

<?php
$fmt = MessageFormatter::parseMessage('en_US', "{0,number,integer} monkeys on {1,number,integer} trees make {2,number} monkeys per tree",
                            "4,560 monkeys on 123 trees make 37.073 monkeys per tree");
var_export($fmt);

$fmt = MessageFormatter::parseMessage('de', "{0,number,integer} Affen auf {1,number,integer} Bäumen sind {2,number} Affen pro Baum", 
                            "4.560 Affen auf 123 Bäumen sind 37,073 Affen pro Baum");
var_export($fmt);
?>

The above example will output:

array (
  0 => 4560,
  1 => 123,
  2 => 37.073,
)
array (
  0 => 4560,
  1 => 123,
  2 => 37.073,
)
