DBTimestamp class

The com.ibm.db2.jcc.DBTimestamp class is a subclass of the java.sql.Timestamp class. Therefore, a com.ibm.db2.jcc.DBTimestamp object can be used with any methods that normally operate on a java.sql.Timestamp object, or take a java.sql.Timestamp object as an argument.

The IBM® Data Server Driver for JDBC and SQLJ returns a DBTimestamp object for all JDBC methods that return timestamp information, such as ResultSet.getTimestamp or CallableStatement.getTimestamp.

DBTimestamp constructor

The following constructor is defined only for the IBM Data Server Driver for JDBC and SQLJ.

DBTimestamp

Formats:

public DBTimestamp(long time,
  java.util.Calendar calendar)
  throws java.sql.SQLException
public DBTimestamp(long time)
  throws java.sql.SQLException
public DBTimestamp(java.sql.Timestamp timestamp)
  throws java.sql.SQLException
public DBTimestamp(java.sql.Timestamp timestamp,
  java.util.Calendar calendar)
  throws java.sql.SQLException

Constructs a DBTimestamp object.

Parameter descriptions:

time

DBTimestamp methods

getPicos

Formats:

public long getPicos()

Returns the fractional seconds component of a DBTimestamp value.

getTimeZone

Formats:

public java.util.TimeZone getTimeZone()

Returns the time zone component of a DBTimestamp value.

setPicos

Format:

public void setPicos(long p)
  throws SQLException

Assigns the given value to the fractional seconds component of a DBTimestamp value.

Parameter descriptions:

p

A value between 0 and 999999999999, inclusive, which is the fractional sections component of a DBTimestamp value.

setTimeZone

Format:

public void setTimeZone(java.util.TimeZone timeZone)
  throws SQLException

Assigns the given value to the time zone component of a DBTimestamp value.

Parameter descriptions:

timeZone

The time zone component of a DBTimestamp value.

valueOfDBString

Format:

public static DBTimestamp valueOfDBString(String s)
  throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException 

Constructs a DBTimestamp value from the string representation of a timestamp value.

Parameter descriptions:

s

The string representation of a timestamp value. The value must be in one of the following formats:

yyyy-mm-dd.hh.mm.ss[.ffffffffffff]-th:tm
yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss[.ffffffffffff]-th:tm
yyyy-mm-dd.hh.mm.ss[.ffffffffffff]
yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss[.ffffffffffff]

• yyyy is a year.
• mm is a month.
• dd is a day.
• hh is hours.
• mm is minutes.
• ss is seconds.
• [.ffffffffffff] is one to 12 optional fractions of seconds.
• th is the hours component of a time zone.
• tm is the minutes component of a time zone.

toDBString

Format:

public String toDBString(boolean includeTimeZone)

Returns the string representation of a DBTimestamp object.

The returned value has one of the following formats:

yyyy-mm-dd.hh.mm.ss[.ffffffffffff]-th:tm
yyyy-mm-dd.hh.mm.ss[.ffffffffffff]

Parameter description:

includeTimeZone

Specifies whether to include the time zone (-th:tm) in the returned string.
