php - How can I identify the currency symbol in a string that has both symbol and value in? -

-

i'm getting data script via xml (not important)... part of data value amount includes currency symbol , amount, example:

["price"]=> string(6) "$65.00" ["price"]=> string(8) "€14.20"

now, i'm looking way automatically work out bit currency symbol , bit value. can't guarrantee quality of data coming in, example amount £14,000.22 or symbol may not single letter - ie swiss francs - chf.

can point me in right direction? tried code worked dollar symbol not euro symbol:

if (preg_match('/\p{sc}/',trim($price),$matches)) {                 var_dump($matches); }

output

array(1) {   [0]=>   string(1) "$" }

for reference looked @ http://www.xe.com/symbols.php list of worlds currency symbols.

i not sure exact source data dealing with. however, in accounting, there different formats different currencies. example currencies prefix currency symbol. others suffix symbol. depending on language of currency, might have different symbols decimal. 

/^(\d*)\s*([\d,\.]+)\s*(\d*)$/

the above regular expression (javascript flavor, might need escape convert php), match following:

  • €14,20
  • $65.00
  • 65.00usd

c# - Is it possible to remove an existing registration from Autofac container builder? -

something along lines: builder.registertype<mytype>().as<itype>(); builder.registertype<mytype2>().as<itype>(); builder.deregistertype<mytype>().as<itype>() var container = builder.build(); var types = container.resolve<ienumerable<itype>>(); assert.istrue(types.count == 1); assert.istrue(types[0].gettype == typeof(mytype2)); scenario: go through bunch of assemblies , go register types want make sure have 1 implementation of given type. need before create container. track on own nice if autofac me bit. this cannot done directly using containerbuilder , unless start on new one. mind you, having first built container should able construct new container filtering away unwanted types , reusing registrations first container. this: ... var container = builder.build(); builder = new containerbuilder(); var components = container.componentregistry.registrations .where(cr => cr.activator.limittype != typ...

php - Mysql PK and FK char(36) vs int(10) -

-
i have read mysql can handle indexes , searches better if tables keys integers rather char(36) uuid's. is worth converting int(10)? note: use 1 server , have have plans use multiple databases concurrently therefore removing 1 of big reasons using uuid. our tables innodb if makes difference. thanks in advance. usually rdbms can handle integer keys pk more efficient, other datatypes. reason how build index column, yes: long dont require string (or other typed) keys, should use integers. however: char(36) , int(10) far away being equal, because int(10) much smaller, char(36). dont know, if require many different keys, should keep in mind. update, complete last paragraph: int(10) 32-bit, char(36) 36 - ^byte^ (= 288-bit). not mean, int consumes less space, means, char(36) has 4 times more different keys.
