Question

I have problems to get the full DATE info from my Oracle DB (dd/mm/yyyy hh/mm/ss).

In the db level, in the column that I want to receive I set test values:

update my_table
set my_date_column=(to_date('2011-06-15 15:43:12', 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss'));

but in my JPA entity I have:

@Column(name = "MY_DATE_COLUMN")
@Temporal(TemporalType.DATE)
private Date dateDetailed;


public Date getDateDetailed() {
    if (this.dateDetailed!= null) {
        return this.dateDetailed;
    }
    return null;
}

public void setDateDetailed(Date dateDetailed) {
    if (dateDetailed!= null) {
        this.dateDetailed= dateDetailed;
    } else {
        this.dateDetailed= null;
    }
}

Each time I acccess my object, It is giving me date without hours, min and seconds.

I tried to use TemporalType.TIMESTAMP, but in that case I would need to also change column type in db (which I want to avoid).

Any suggestions?

Its the TemporalType.DATE
You will need TIME or TIMESTAMP. DATE is only the date without time. TIMESTAMP is represented as a number.
