Unicode Support.
Warning |
This extension is still in development and it isn't available to public yet. |
ICU 3.4 or later is required.
First you should download and install ICU:
Then checkout latest PHP and configure it --with-icu-dir=<dir> option, where <dir> was the dir to where you installed ICU. You don't need to explicitly use this option if you install ICU to a standard location.
The behaviour of these functions is affected by settings in php.ini.
