It seems that the safest way to check for errors is not by checking the number of errors, but warnings instead. See the following example where "m" and "d" are swapped and thus not correct.
<?php
var_dump( date_parse_from_format('m.d.Y', '18.10.2024') );
OUTPUT:
array(12) {
["year"]=>
int(2024)
["month"]=>
int(18)
["day"]=>
int(10)
["hour"]=>
bool(false)
["minute"]=>
bool(false)
["second"]=>
bool(false)
["fraction"]=>
bool(false)
["warning_count"]=>
int(1)
["warnings"]=>
array(1) {
[10]=>
string(27) "The parsed date was invalid"
}
["error_count"]=>
int(0)
["errors"]=>
array(0) {
}
["is_localtime"]=>
bool(false)
}
?>
The function simply assigns 18 to the "month" field without errors!! So simply use an if-condition and check "warning_count" to detect possible errors.
