Migrating from Previous Versions
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.
Migrating from 1.0.2 to 1.0.3 or Newer
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.
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.
setFormat(array $options);
]]>
The toCurrency() method no longer supports the optional
'script' and 'locale' parameters. Instead it takes an options array which
can contain the same keys as for the setFormat method.
toCurrency($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.
