    codepoint

    La valeur codepoint de type entier (i.e. 0x2603 pour U+2603 SNOWMAN), ou le caractère encodé en UTF-8 de type chaîne de caractères (i.e. "\u{2603}")

    Valeurs de retour

    Returns the Simple_Lowercase_Mapping of the code point, if any; otherwise the code point itself. Returns null on failure.

    Le type retourné sera entier tant que le codepoint a été passé en une chaîne de type chaîne de caractères encodée en UTF-8, auquel cas, une chaîne de caractères est retournée. En cas d'échec, retourne null.

    Exemples

    Exemple #1 Test de différents codepoint

    <?php
    var_dump    (IntlChar::tolower("A"));
    var_dump(IntlChar::tolower("a"));
    var_dump(IntlChar::tolower("Φ"));
    var_dump(IntlChar::tolower("φ"));
    var_dump(IntlChar::tolower("1"));
    var_dump(IntlChar::tolower(ord("A")));
    var_dump(IntlChar::tolower(ord("a")));
    ?>

    L'exemple ci-dessus va afficher :

    string(1) "a"
string(1) "a"
string(2) "φ"
string(2) "φ"
string(1) "1"
int(97)
int(97)

    The other function I wrote to replace mb_strtolower may not work properly, as it erroneously equated graphemes with codepoints.

    tolower, like many IntlChar methods, works specifically on codepoints, so requires a codepoint iterator to isolate each.

    Also, because in tolower, if there is no lowercase version of the codepoint, the supplied one is returned, so there is no need to specially test for alphabetic codepoints before conversion.

    <?php
    function u_tolower($text=''){
    // if blank, return blank (don't waste CPU cycles)
    if($text==''){return'';}

    // create the codepoint break iterator to identify the start of each codepoint
    $iterator=IntlBreakIterator::createCodePointInstance();

    // load the text
    $iterator->setText($text);

    // using a parts iterator to extract each codepoint itself, convert and append it to the new string
    $newtext='';
    foreach(    $iterator->getPartsIterator() as $codepoint){$newtext.=IntlChar::tolower($codepoint);}

    // return converted text
    return $newtext;
    }
    ?>
