Question

!!IMPORTANT!!
Solution found, you need to use a sql.timestamp. Although there are 2 problems with the timestamp. First of all if you want to put an Date into an Timestamp you need to do: new Timestamp(date.getTime().getTime());
Kinda weird…

Also the months of a Timestamp start at 0, so january is 0. This means 23-02-2010 in Timestamp means 23-01-2010.

Thanks all.

I’ve got a question about Java with MySQL. I’ve made a table called “Reserveringen”.
This table got 5 columns as shown below. The 2nd and 3th column are both datetime types (made in Dreamcoder for mysql). But as you can see both ain’t showing any time. Even when I get them from the database with Java, it shows the time is 23:00:00 if I’m correct.

  Id    vanaf       tot     klant_idmachine_id
    9   12/3/2010   1/14/2011   6   29
    8   1/3/2011    1/14/2011   6   27
    2   1/14/2011   6/20/2010   6   9
    3   1/14/2011   6/20/2010   6   11
    4   1/14/2011   6/20/2010   6   19
    5   1/14/2011   6/20/2010   6   21
    6   1/14/2011   6/20/2010   6   23
    7   1/14/2011   6/20/2010   6   25
    1   1/14/3911   1/14/3911   6   5

Tableinformation from mysql:

reserveringen  
Field  Null  Type  Key  Default  Extra  
Id _  NO _  int(10) _  PRI _  _  _  
vanaf _  YES _  datetime _  _  _  _  
tot _  YES _  datetime _  _  _  _  
klant_id _  YES _  int(10) _  MUL _  _  _  
machine_id _  YES _  int(10) _  MUL _  _  _  

Any solutions?

Use timestamp then it’ll store date and time like this 2010-06-21 13:28:17

java.util.Date today=new java.util.Date();
Timestamp currentTimestamp=new Timestamp(today.getTime());
PreparedStatement statement = dbConnection.prepareStatement("your query");
statement.setTimestamp(1, currentTimestamp);
