How to easy recalculate carry over points:
<?php
class DateIntervalEnhanced extends DateInterval {
public function recalculate()
{
$from = new DateTime;
$to = clone $from;
$to = $to->add($this);
$diff = $from->diff($to);
foreach ($diff as $k => $v) $this->$k = $v;
return $this;
}
}
$di = new DateIntervalEnhanced('PT3600S');
echo "Instead of " . $di->format('%h:%i:%s') . " it outputs " . $di->recalculate()->format('%h:%i:%s');
# output will be: "Instead of 0:0:3600 it outputs 1:0:0"

范例
示例 #1 DateInterval example
<?php
$interval = new DateInterval('P2Y4DT6H8M');
echo $interval->format('%d days');
?>
以上例程会输出：
4 days
示例 #2 DateInterval and carry over points
<?php
$interval = new DateInterval('P32D');
echo $interval->format('%d days');
?>
以上例程会输出：
32 days
示例 #3 DateInterval and DateTime::diff() with the %a and %d modifiers
<?php
$january = new DateTime('2010-01-01');
$february = new DateTime('2010-02-01');
$interval = $february->diff($january);
// %a will output the total number of days.
echo $interval->format('%a total days')."\n";
// While %d will only output the number of days not already covered by the
// month.
echo $interval->format('%m month, %d days');
?>
以上例程会输出：
31 total days 1 month, 0 days
注释
注意:
The DateInterval::format() method does not recalculate carry over points in time strings nor in date segments. This is expected because it is not possible to overflow values like
"32 days"which could be interpreted as anything from"1 month and 4 days"to"1 month and 1 day".

With php 5.3, DateTime is sweet !
Here is one quick example :
<?php
/**
* A sweet interval formatting, will use the two biggest interval parts.
* On small intervals, you get minutes and seconds.
* On big intervals, you get months and days.
* Only the two biggest parts are used.
*
* @param DateTime $start
* @param DateTime|null $end
* @return string
*/
public function formatDateDiff($start, $end=null) {
if(!($start instanceof DateTime)) {
$start = new DateTime($start);
}
if($end === null) {
$end = new DateTime();
}
if(!($end instanceof DateTime)) {
$end = new DateTime($start);
}
$interval = $end->diff($start);
$doPlural = function($nb,$str){return $nb>1?$str.'s':$str;}; // adds plurals
$format = array();
if($interval->y !== 0) {
$format[] = "%y ".$doPlural($interval->y, "year");
}
if($interval->m !== 0) {
$format[] = "%m ".$doPlural($interval->m, "month");
}
if($interval->d !== 0) {
$format[] = "%d ".$doPlural($interval->d, "day");
}
if($interval->h !== 0) {
$format[] = "%h ".$doPlural($interval->h, "hour");
}
if($interval->i !== 0) {
$format[] = "%i ".$doPlural($interval->i, "minute");
}
if($interval->s !== 0) {
if(!count($format)) {
return "less than a minute ago";
} else {
$format[] = "%s ".$doPlural($interval->s, "second");
}
}
// We use the two biggest parts
if(count($format) > 1) {
$format = array_shift($format)." and ".array_shift($format);
} else {
$format = array_pop($format);
}
// Prepend 'since ' or whatever you like
return $interval->format($format);
}

If you want the difference between two timestamps in HOURS, do not forget to add the number of days:
<?php
// Bad example
$lastEntryDate = new \DateTime('2015-05-23 00:10:20', new \DateTimeZone('UTC'));
$dateDifference = $lastEntryDate->diff(new \DateTime('2015-05-25 02:35:45', new \DateTimeZone('UTC')));
var_dump((int)$dateDifference->format('%H'));
// Returns 2
if ((int)$dateDifference->format('%H') > 24) {
// Will never enter here, (int)$dateDifference->format('%H') will contain 0-23 ONLY
}
?>
Instead, sum the days:
<?php
// Bad example
$lastEntryDate = new \DateTime('2015-05-23 00:10:20', new \DateTimeZone('UTC'));
$dateDifference = $lastEntryDate->diff(new \DateTime('2015-05-25 02:35:45', new \DateTimeZone('UTC')));
var_dump(($dateDifference->days * 24 + (int)$dateDifference->format('%H')));
// Returns 50
if (($dateDifference->days * 24 + (int)$dateDifference->format('%H')) > 24) {
// Will enter here now :)
}
?>
Hope this saves somebody some time and possible bugs :)

Be aware that your default timezone can sometimes alter the result of a diff so that the returned months/days are incorrect.

The fact that $dateTime->diff(new DateTime()) returns a DateInterval and the interval is something where you don't get any useful number is somebit annoying.
<?php
$longTimeAgo = new DateTime('1999-10-23 16:29:21')
// easy workaround:
var_dump((float)$longTimeAgo->format('U.u') - (float)(new DateTime())->format('U.u'));
// or in seconds if you are not that precise
var_dump($longTimeAgo->getTimestamp() - (new DateTime())-getTimestamp());
// this function can help you if you want to stick with DateInterval objects
function interval_to_float(DateInterval $interval) {
$seconds = 0;
$days = (int)$interval->days;
if ($days === false || $days === -99999) { //php5.5 compatibility
$days = floor($interval->y * 365.2525);
$days += $interval->m * 30; // that's totally inaccurate
// or: $days += floor($interval->m * 30.4167);
$days += $interval->d;
}
return ($days * 24 * 60 * 60 +
$interval->h * 60 * 60 +
$interval->i * 60 +
$interval->s) * ($interval->invert ? -1 : 1) +
$interval->f / 1000000; // you may wonder but they are negativ and not affected by invert

glavic, this does not eliminate the problem of "32 days", if you use your class for normalizing intervals of days, because the result will depend on the current month which is used for DateTime by default. And if that does not matter (because the interval is not that long) you don't have to call diff() to get the same recalculation:
$DT=new DateTime('0000-01-01'); $DT->add($oInt); echo($DT->format('Y-m-d H:i:s'));

Quick class to allow you to input a time in any unit, and have it recalculate in to different denominations (for example, seconds to hours, minutes and seconds):
<?php
class DateIntervalEnhanced extends DateInterval
{
/* Keep in mind that a year is seen in this class as 365 days, and a month is seen as 30 days.
It is not possible to calculate how many days are in a given year or month without a point of
reference in time.*/
public function to_seconds()
{
return ($this->y * 365 * 24 * 60 * 60) +
($this->m * 30 * 24 * 60 * 60) +
($this->d * 24 * 60 * 60) +
($this->h * 60 * 60) +
($this->i * 60) +
$this->s;
}
public function recalculate()
{
$seconds = $this->to_seconds();
$this->y = floor($seconds/60/60/24/365);
$seconds -= $this->y * 31536000;
$this->m = floor($seconds/60/60/24/30);
$seconds -= $this->m * 2592000;
$this->d = floor($seconds/60/60/24);
$seconds -= $this->d * 86400;
$this->h = floor($seconds/60/60);
$seconds -= $this->h * 3600;
$this->i = floor($seconds/60);
$seconds -= $this->i * 60;
$this->s = $seconds;
}
}
// Example usage
$di = new DateIntervalEnhanced('PT3600S');
$di->recalculate();
// outputs 1:0:0 instead of 0:0:3600 now!
echo $di->format('%H:%i:%s');
?>

Important: Note that from PHP version <= 7.2.11 if you use %F or %f the result may be a negative number, which is a bug mentioned here:
https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77007
And has been fixed since version 7.2.12.

I was doing this: $endDate->diff($startDate)->format('%a’)
to get the number of the days between the end date and the start date. This is correct, but if I subtract 2016-04-23 00:00:00 to 2016-04-02 09:39:01 (note that in only one of the datetime values we have the time) the result is 21 (and not 20 as I expected). This is because the result of the diff is 20 days AND 14 hours, 20 mins and 59 secs. If you use the %a to get the days from a dateinterval, it will round the days (and if the hours are greater than 12, it will round days up).
So, DO NOT USE the %a formatting to get the difference in days between 2 datetime unless you are 100% sure that both the Datetime objects don't have the time.
You can solve easily with $valueDate->diff($startDate)->days that will return only the days in a dateinterval (without the fuc***g rounding).

}

}
$interval = $end->diff($start);
$doPlural = function($nb,$str){
if ($nb > 1) {
switch ($str) {
case 'Jahr':
case 'Monat':
case 'Tag':
return $str.'e';
case 'Stunde':
case 'Minute':
case 'Sekunde':

} else
return $str;
}; // adds plurals
$format = array();
