inserting datetimes into database using java
- by gordatron
Hi,
I am wanting to insert a datetime into a MySql data base using Java and a prepared statement:
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
PreparedStatement stmnt = db.PreparedStatement("INSERT INTO Run " +
"(Time) VALUE (?) ");
stmnt.setDate(1, new java.sql.Date(cal.getTime()));
stmnt.executeQuery();
NOTE: thre is currently an error - cannot find symbol (java.sql.Date) line 4 here
db is an instance of a sort of wrapper class that exposes what I need from java.sql - its just getting a prepared statement from my connection object here.
Time (the column) is a date time in my database, and I can only see sedDate and setTime method but I want to store both - also my code does not work anyway ;-)
if anyone could give me some pointers on inserting a combined date time (current time would be a great help as that's my first goal) into a MySql DB using a prepared statement I would be very grateful.
Thanks
