面向对象风格
<?php
$datetime1 = new DateTime ( '2009-10-11' );
$datetime2 = new DateTime ( '2009-10-13' );
$interval = $datetime1 -> diff ( $datetime2 );
echo $interval -> format ( '%R%a days' );
?>
过程化风格
<?php
$datetime1 = date_create ( '2009-10-11' );
$datetime2 = date_create ( '2009-10-13' );
$interval = date_diff ( $datetime1 , $datetime2 );
echo $interval -> format ( '%R%a days' );
?>
以上例程会输出:
+2 days
Example #2 DateTime object comparison
Note:
As of PHP 5.2.2, DateTime objects can be compared using comparison operators.
<?php
$date1 = new DateTime ( "now" );
$date2 = new DateTime ( "tomorrow" );
var_dump ( $date1 == $date2 );
var_dump ( $date1 < $date2 );
var_dump ( $date1 > $date2 );
?>
以上例程会输出:
bool(false) bool(true) bool(false)
[#1] cagatay at devmonks dot net [2015-11-25 15:20:34]
Be careful using:
$date1 = new DateTime('now');
$date2 = new DateTime('tomorrow');
$interval = date_diff($date1, $date2);
echo $interval->format('In %a days');
In some situations, this won't say "in 1 days", but "in 0 days".
I think this is because "now" is the current time, while "tomorrow" is the current day +1 but at a default time, lets say:
Now: 08:00pm, 01.01.2015
Tomorrow: 00:00am, 02.01.2015
In this case, the difference is not 24 hour, so it will says 0 days.
Better use "today", which should also use a default value like:
Today: 00:00am, 01.01.2015
Tomorrow: 00:00am, 02.01.2015
which now is 24 hour and represents 1 day.
This may sound logical and many will say "of course, this is right", but if you use it in a naiv way (like I did without thinking), you can come to this moment and facepalm yourself.
Conclusion: "Now" is "Today", but in a different clock time, but still the same day!

Here you have in this post http://softontherocks.blogspot.com/2014/12/calcular-la-edad-con-php.html the code to get the age of a person specifying the date of birth:
function getAge($birthdate){
$adjust = (date("md") >= date("md", strtotime($birthdate))) ? 0 : -1; // Si a??n no hemos llegado al d??a y mes en este a?o restamos 1
$years = date("Y") - date("Y", strtotime($birthdate)); // Calculamos el n??mero de a?os
return $years + $adjust; // Sumamos la diferencia de a?os m??s el ajuste
}

Another Method to compare dates:
<?php
$d1 = new DateTime('2014-06-07 20:56:00');
$d2 = new DateTime('2014-06-09 21:09:00');
echo 'The DateTimes are: <br /> d1: '.$d1->format("d-M-y, h:i A").'<br /> d2: '.$d2->format("d-M-y, h:i A");
$date_diff = $d1->diff($d2); // difference of dates = ($d2 - $d1)
if ( (int)$date_diff->format('%R%a') >= 0 ){
echo '<br /><br />The recent date is: '.$d2->format("d-M-y, h:i A");
echo '<br /> The older date is: '.$d1->format("d-M-y, h:i A");
}else{
echo '<br /><br />The recent date is: '.$d1->format("d-M-y, h:i A");
echo '<br /> The older date is: '.$d2->format("d-M-y, h:i A");
}
?>
Output:
The DateTimes are:
d1: 07-Jun-14, 08:56 PM
d2: 09-Jun-14, 09:09 PM
The recent date is: 09-Jun-14, 09:09 PM
The older date is: 07-Jun-14, 08:56 PM

Using the identical (===) comparision operator in different but equal objects will return false
<?php
$c = new DateTime( '2014-04-20' );
$d = new DateTime( '2014-04-20' );
var_dump( $d === $d ); #true
var_dump( $d === $c ); #false
var_dump( $d == $c ); #true

[#7] crayonviolent at phpfreaks dot com [2014-03-18 17:26:35]
It seems that while DateTime in general does preserve microseconds, DateTime::diff doesn't appear to account for it when comparing.
Example:
<?php
$val1 = '2014-03-18 10:34:09.939';
$val2 = '2014-03-18 10:34:09.940';
$datetime1 = new DateTime($val1);
$datetime2 = new DateTime($val2);
echo "<pre>";
var_dump($datetime1->diff($datetime2));
if($datetime1 > $datetime2)
echo "1 is bigger";
else
echo "2 is bigger";
?>
The var_dump shows that there is no "u" element, and "2 is bigger" is echoed.
To work around this apparent limitation/oversight, you have to additionally compare using DateTime::format.
Example:
<?php
if($datetime1 > $datetime2)
echo "1 is bigger";
else if ($datetime1->format('u') > $datetime2->format('u'))
echo "1 is bigger";
else
echo "2 is bigger";
?>

It is worth noting, IMO, and it is implied in the docs but not explicitly stated, that the object on which diff is called is subtracted from the object that is passed to diff.
i.e. $now->diff($tomorrow) is positive.
[#9] php at jcouture dot net [2013-06-20 01:45:59]
After wrestling with DateTime::diff for a while it finally dawned on me the problem was both in the formatting of the input string and the formatting of the output.
The task was to calculate the duration between two date/times.
### Calculating Duration
1. Make sure you have a valid date variable. Both of these strings are valid:
<?php
// Example
$strStart = '2013-06-19 18:25';
$strEnd = '06/19/13 21:47';
?>
2. Next convert the string to a date variable
~~~
<?php
$dteStart = new DateTime($strStart);
$dteEnd = new DateTime($strEnd);
?>
~~~
3. Calculate the difference
~~~
<?php
$dteDiff = $dteStart->diff($dteEnd);
?>
~~~
4. Format the output
~~~
<?php
print $dteDiff->format("%H:%I:%S");
?>
~~~

So this function is not available for my server's PHP. I created an alternative.
Convert the datetime into time-stamps, then subtract normally, then convert the seconds to whatever you want.
<?php
$date1 = new DateTime('now');
$date1->modify("-3 hours");
$date2 = new DateTime('now');
$number1 = (int)$date1->format('U');
$number2 = (int)$date2->format('U');
echo ($number2 - $number1)/60/60; // will print 3

Keep in mind that diff will convert the two DateTime objects from local time to UTC.

Though I found a number of people who ran into the issue of 5.2 and lower not supporting this function, I was unable to find any solid examples to get around it. Therefore I hope this can help some others:

When using datediff make sure your time zone is correct, for me on Windows 7 64 bit it behaved very strange when timezone was wrong (I was comparing now against time in database and exif metadata in photos). For example: date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Oslo');

I needed to get the exact number of days between 2 dates and was relying on the this diff function, but found that I was getting a peculiar result with:
<?php
$today = new DateTime(date('2011-11-09'));
$appt = new DateTime(date('2011-12-09'));
$days_until_appt = $appt->diff($today)->d;
?>
This was returning 0 because it was exactly one month.
I had to end up using :
<?php
$days_until_appt = $appt->diff($today)->days;
?>
to get 30.

I was looking for a way to output X number of days from a given date and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. But I got this working. I hope this helps you.
This will output the number of days,months, or years difference between NOW and a April 1st, 2011.
<?php
$date1 = new DateTime('2011-04-01');
$date2 = new DateTime("now");
$interval = $date1->diff($date2);
$years = $interval->format('%y');
$months = $interval->format('%m');
$days = $interval->format('%d');
if($years!=0){
$ago = $years.' year(s) ago';
}else{
$ago = ($months == 0 ? $days.' day(s) ago' : $months.' month(s) ago');
}
echo $ago;
?>
If I used today, 2011-05-16 as $date1, I could return all 0's in the format. For example....
<?php
$date1 = new DateTime('2011-05-161');
$date2 = new DateTime("now");
$interval = $date1->diff($date2);
$diff = $interval->format('%y-%m-%d');
echo $diff; //Today, this will output 0-0-0

[#19] schindhelm at gmail dot com [2011-01-21 12:48:07]
I found that DateTime::diff isn't as accurate as I thought. I calculated the age gap between now and a birthdate from before 1970 (unix epoch). Here's what I got:
Given today is January 21st, 2011:
<?php
date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Berlin');
// birthdate format is YYYY-MM-DD
$birth = new DateTime('1966-01-21');
$today = new DateTime();
$diff = $birth->diff($today);
echo $diff->format('%y'); // will output 45
$birth = new DateTime('1966-01-23');
$today = new DateTime();
$diff = $birth->diff($today);
echo $diff->format('%y'); // will output 45 wrongly
$birth = new DateTime('1966-01-24'); // three days difference!
$today = new DateTime();
$diff = $birth->diff($today);
echo $diff->format('%y'); // will output 44 - correct
?>
When calculating with the date() function it was more accurate (didn't use seconds/hours for comparison).
Note that 3 days may be a lot if you want to create invoices and have to check against a given age to determine if the customer is chargable for taxes and so on.
If someone also found this behaviour I'd like to hear about it - give me a quick mail at schindhelm (at) gmail (dot) com.
Thanks.

If you want to quickly scan through the resulting intervals, you can use the undocumented properties of DateInterval.
The function below returns a single number of years, months, days, hours, minutes or seconds between the current date and the provided date. If the date occurs in the past (is negative/inverted), it suffixes it with 'ago'.
<?php
function pluralize( $count, $text )
{
return $count . ( ( $count == 1 ) ? ( " $text" ) : ( " ${text}s" ) );
}
function ago( $datetime )
{
$interval = date_create('now')->diff( $datetime );
$suffix = ( $interval->invert ? ' ago' : '' );
if ( $v = $interval->y >= 1 ) return pluralize( $interval->y, 'year' ) . $suffix;
if ( $v = $interval->m >= 1 ) return pluralize( $interval->m, 'month' ) . $suffix;
if ( $v = $interval->d >= 1 ) return pluralize( $interval->d, 'day' ) . $suffix;
if ( $v = $interval->h >= 1 ) return pluralize( $interval->h, 'hour' ) . $suffix;
if ( $v = $interval->i >= 1 ) return pluralize( $interval->i, 'minute' ) . $suffix;
return pluralize( $interval->s, 'second' ) . $suffix;
}
?>

For those like me who don't yet have PHP 5.3 installed on their host, here's a simple alternative to get the number of days between two dates in the format '2010-3-23' or similar acceptable to strtotime(). You need PHP 5.2.
<?php
function date_diff($date1, $date2) {
$current = $date1;
$datetime2 = date_create($date2);
$count = 0;
while(date_create($current) < $datetime2){
$current = gmdate("Y-m-d", strtotime("+1 day", strtotime($current)));
$count++;
}
return $count;
}
echo (date_diff('2010-3-9', '2011-4-10')." days <br \>");
?>

You don't need to calculate the exact difference if you just want to know what date comes earlier:

$d1 = new DateTime('1492-01-01');
$d2 = new DateTime('1492-12-31');
var_dump($d1 < $d2);
var_dump($d1 > $d2);
var_dump($d1 == $d2);
