IntlChar::tolower

(PHP 7)

IntlChar::tolowerMake Unicode character lowercase

설명

public static mixed IntlChar::tolower ( mixed $codepoint )

The given character is mapped to its lowercase equivalent. If the character has no lowercase equivalent, the original character itself is returned.

인수

codepoint

The integer codepoint value (e.g. 0x2603 for U+2603 SNOWMAN), or the character encoded as a UTF-8 string (e.g. "\u{2603}")

반환값

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

The return type will be integer unless the code point was passed as a UTF-8 string, in which case a string will be returned.

Example #1 Testing different code points

<?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")));
?>

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;
}
?>
