EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      datefmt_set_calendar(3) example

	      $fmt = datefmt_create(
		  'en_US',
		  IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
		  IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
		  'America/Los_Angeles',
		  IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN
	      );
	      echo 'calendar of the formatter is : ' . datefmt_get_calendar($fmt);
	      datefmt_set_calendar($fmt, IntlDateFormatter::TRADITIONAL);
	      echo 'Now calendar of the formatter is : ' . datefmt_get_calendar($fmt);
	      ?>

       Example #2

	      OO example

	      <?php
	      $fmt = new IntlDateFormatter(
		  'en_US',
		  IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
		  IntlDateFormatter::FULL,
		  'America/Los_Angeles',
		  IntlDateFormatter::GREGORIAN
	      );
	      echo 'calendar of the formatter is : ' . $fmt->getCalendar();
	      $fmt->setCalendar(IntlDateFormatter::TRADITIONAL);
	      echo 'Now calendar of the formatter is : ' . $fmt->getCalendar();
	      ?>

       The above example will output:

       calendar of the formatter is : 1
       Now calendar of the formatter is : 0

       Example #3

	      Example with IntlCalendar argument

	      <?php
	      $time = strtotime("2013-03-03 00:00:00 UTC");
	      $formatter = IntlDateFormatter::create("en_US", NULL, NULL, "Europe/Amsterdam");

	      echo "before: ", $formatter->format($time), "
";

	      /* note that the calendar's locale is not used! */
	      $formatter->setCalendar(IntlCalendar::createInstance(
			     "America/New_York", "pt_PT@calendar=islamic"));

	      echo "after:  ", $formatter->format($time), "
";

	      The above example will output:

	      before: Sunday, March 3, 2013 at 1:00:00 AM Central European Standard Time
