Re: JDBC date insert

I also agree. However, I am restricted to using strings right now. I
cannot use a date object. Also, I do not have access to the driver
properties.

Inserting a date in all different formats (e.g. 11/4/2008, 2008-11-4) works
fine from the SQL green screen. All fail using JDBC. The JDBC insert
seems to want the date in perfect MM/DD/YYYY format with leading zeros, as
is set for the system date format. It seems the only option is to modify
the string to be in MM/DD/YYY format . I don't forsee the system date
format changing but I'd rather not tie myself to it. Is there another way?

Thanks,
Todd

Hi Todd,

I agree with both Paul and James.

If you need to specify values other than the current date and time, use
the valueOf() methods of java.sql.Date, java.sql.Time, java.sql.Timestamp
with the values in standard escape syntax. That will work on any database
with a compliant driver.

See:

http://www.jguru.com/faq/view.jsp?EID=422110

under " The second method..." for an example, and review the javadocs.

It is a prepared statement but I was trying to keep the Java code simple
by
dealing with only strings. It seems I'll need to do the conversion in
the
Java code rather than in the SQL statement.

Thanks,
Todd

Well, don't do it that way. Just use a PreparedStatement. It takes care
of all those annoying details on your behalf.

java.util.Date date = // a date 11/5/2008 with time 4:02:04
PreparedStatement ps = conn.prepareStatement("insert into myfile
(cmdate, cmtime) values(?, ?)");
ps.setDate(1, new java.sql.Date(date.getTime()));
ps.setTime(2, new java.sql.Time(date.getTime()));
ps.executeUpdate();

PC2

Subject: JDBC date insert

I am having trouble with a JDBC insert of a string into date or time
columns in a database table. The same command works fine from the SQL
green screen.
The insert statement fails with the "Data type mismatch" SQL exception.
The odd thing is that this only fails when the date or time does not
have all leading zeros.
Date of 11/14/2008 - success
Date of 11/4/2008 - error
Time of 22:00:00 - success
Time of 4:00:00 - error

The insert statement looks like this:

insert into myfile (cmdate, cmtime) values(cast('11/5/2008' as date),
cast('4:02:04' as time))

Thanks,
Todd
