范例

Example #1 locale_lookup() example


<?php
$arr = array(
    'de-DEVA',
    'de-DE-1996',
    'de',
    'de-De'
);
echo locale_lookup($arr, 'de-DE-1996-x-prv1-prv2', true, 'en_US');
?>

Example #2 OO example


<?php
$arr = array(
    'de-DEVA',
    'de-DE-1996',
    'de',
    'de-De'
);
echo Locale::lookup($arr, 'de-DE-1996-x-prv1-prv2', true, 'en_US');
?>

以上例程会输出：

de_de_1996

Note that this method does not understand "similar" languages, so the following:



    Locale::lookup(["en-US"], "en-GB", false);

Or:

    Locale::lookup(["es-ES"], "es-CO", false);



Does not work as you would expect (empty result). To get a match in those cases you will have to use two letter language codes instead:



    Locale::lookup(["en"], "en-GB", false);

Or:

    Locale::lookup(["es"], "es-CO", false);



These do return 'en' and 'es' respectively.

It worth to note that if $langtag array is empty this function returns empty string and not $default . Use array(false) if your $langtag array is empty in order to get default locale.
