Re: DDS Time vs. DDL Time

There is a difference, in DDL (SQL) defined files, the data is validated
when writing the record, in DDS files it is validated at read time. It
is very likely that your application is trying to write a "wrong time".

I am working through an issue here. I have a C#.NET application that
is uploading data to the i. In one application, I have the file
defined as DDS (old habits don't die) with a time field. In this new
application, I am using DDL to create the file and it also has a time
field. I have basically copied and pasted the line from the working
application to the new application and still doesn't work. The only
difference I can see is DDS vs. DDL. Is anyone able to confirm there
is some sort of difference (even though I don't know why there wold
be)?

Working line:
cmd.Parameters.Add("@SUPERVISOR_SIGNED_TIME",
iDB2DbType.iDB2Time).Value =
leaveRequest.SupervisorSignedDateTime.ToString("HH.mm.ss");

Non-working line:
cmd.Parameters.Add("@PAYMENTTIME", iDB2DbType.iDB2Time).Value =
transactions.Transaction.TransactionTimestamp.ToString("HH.mm.ss");

Both leaveRequest.SupervisorSignedDateTime and
transactions.Transaction.TransactionTimestamp are of the same C# type
(DateTime).

The error is:
IBM.Data.DB2.iSeries.iDB2ConversionException was unhandled
Message=A conversion error occurred.
Source=IBM.Data.DB2.iSeries
MessageCode=111
MessageDetails=Parameter: 13.

I am first posting to MIDRANGE-L to eliminate the table out of the issue.
