The API of Zend_Currency
has changed in the past to enhance
usability. If you started using Zend_Currency
with a
version which is mentioned in this chapter follow the guidelines below
to migrate your scripts to the new API.
Creating an object of Zend_Currency
has become simpler.
You no longer have to give a script or set it to NULL
. The optional
script parameter is now an option which can be set through the
setFormat()
method.
$currency = new Zend_Currency($currency, $locale);
The setFormat()
method takes now an array of options. These
options are set permanently and override all previously set values. Also a new option
'precision' has been added. The following options have been refactored:
position: Replacement for the old 'rules' parameter.
script: Replacement for the old 'script' parameter.
format: Replacement for the old 'locale' parameter which does not set new currencies but only the number format.
display: Replacement for the old 'rules' parameter.
precision: New parameter.
name: Replacement for the ole 'rules' parameter. Sets the full currencies name.
currency: New parameter.
symbol: New parameter.
$currency->setFormat(array $options);
The toCurrency()
method no longer supports the optional
'script' and 'locale' parameters. Instead it takes an options array which
can contain the same keys as for the setFormat()
method.
$currency->toCurrency($value, array $options);
The methods getSymbol()
,
getShortName()
, getName()
,
getRegionList()
and
getCurrencyList()
are no longer static and can be called
from within the object. They return the set values of the object if no
parameter has been set.
