grapheme_extract(

    int $type = GRAPHEME_EXTR_COUNT,
    int $offset = 0,
    int &$next = null
): string|false

Function to extract a sequence of default grapheme clusters from a text buffer, which must be encoded in UTF-8.

Parameter-Liste

haystack

String to search.

size

Maximum number items - based on the type - to return.

type

Defines the type of units referred to by the size parameter:

GRAPHEME_EXTR_COUNT (default) -size is the number of default grapheme clusters to extract.
GRAPHEME_EXTR_MAXBYTES -size is the maximum number of bytes returned.
GRAPHEME_EXTR_MAXCHARS - size is the maximum number of UTF-8 characters returned.

offset

Starting position in haystack in bytes - if given, it must be zero or a positive value that is less than or equal to the length of haystack in bytes, or a negative value that counts from the end of haystack. If offset does not point to the first byte of a UTF-8 character, the start position is moved to the next character boundary.

next

Reference to a value that will be set to the next starting position. When the call returns, this may point to the first byte position past the end of the string.

Rückgabewerte

A string starting at offset offset and ending on a default grapheme cluster boundary that conforms to the size and type specified, Bei einem Fehler wird false zurückgegeben..

Changelog

Version	Beschreibung
7.1.0	Support for negative `offset`s has been added.
