The API of Zend_Currency has changed in the past to increase
the 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 now do not longer have to give a script or set it to null. The optional
script parameter is now a option which can be set through the
setFormat method.
<?php
$currency = new Zend_Currency($currency, $locale);
The setFormat method takes now an array of options which
can be set. This options are set permanent and override all previous
set values. Also a new option 'precision' has been integrated. The
following options has been integrated:
-
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.
<?php
$currency->setFormat(array $options);
The toCurrency() method does no longer support the optional
'script' and 'locale' parameters. Instead it takes an options array which
can contain the same keys as for the setFormat method.
<?php
$currency->toCurrency($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.
