Alok

Try returning a java.util.Date. If that doesn't work then send me your
getDate code.

Subject: InstantDB: problem with Date function


I wrote a function "getdate" which returns current time as
java.sql.Timestamp
object.
I can use "NOW" for current time in InstantDB but I am trying to port my
application from Sybase to InstantDB and the application uses Sybase getdate
function. I want to avoid touching the queries as they are quite complex.

when I run the query :
          select * from UserEvent where StartDate < getdate()
 I get following exception :
    main java.lang.ClassCastException: java.sql.Timestamp
    java.sql.SQLException: java.sql.Timestamp
        at db.SQLProg.execute(SQLProg.java:276)
        at jdbc.idbStatement.execute(idbStatement.java:235)
        at commsql.main(commsql.java:74)

but if i run select * from UserEvent where StartDate < "2000-05-19
23:59:59.0",
  it works.
 I also tried returning String in getdate(), but didn't work

Any clues?
