Hi All -
I have reversed engineered my model from an Oracle 10g
db. Most of the entities have date added and date
updated attributes (containing both date and time
pieces). I would like to display both the date and
time to the user (example: 22 Jan 2007 14:24).
Here is the information from the models plist:
columnName = "DATE_ADDED";
externalType = DATE;
name = dateAdded;
valueClassName = NSTimestamp;
valueType = D;
The columns are of type DATE in the database.
I am able to get the day, month, year to display
correctly using the supplied dateformat attribute in
wostring. Then when I want to just display the time
portion, midnight (00:00 or 12:00 AM) is displayed
even though there is an actual time in the database.
Thanks for any help/pointers.

Have a quick read of this document regarding oracle dates and times. You
might need the following to get the correct behaviour when updating
DATE(date & time) attributes using EOF as well as setting the valueType = T.
java -Doracle.jdbc.V8Compatibility="true" MyApp
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/htdocs/jdbc_faq.htm#08_01
I have been using oracle 10g in a dev environment for about 6 months or
so with data imported from an oracle 8i database.
I found that I needed to use the V8Compatibility arg above and to make
sure that valueType = T was set for NSTimestamps which mapped to oracle
DATE attributes containing date & time information otherwise updates failed.
You might want to ensure you have the correct drivers aswell.
