Use the "time without time zone" column or "date" data type.  Start your app with  -Duser.timezone=GMT

You say 'these are Java'. yes, but how it relates to the backend. I have invoice dates in my database. it is just a date. no time.

how can I set up Entity Modeler to not use a Timestamp. I tried the Joda Time stuff but it seems that there were problems so it was pulled.

So I need to rephrase. How can I have a date column in my database and have an object in Webobjects that is date only and not care about times and timezones?

Am I clearer?
