Retreiving Date/Time from a Date field in Oracle database

[renisha]

I am trying to retreive a string in this format dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm:ss a from Oracle database from the column of type Date which has value 10/09/2007 07:11:16

Date strfinaldate = new java.util.Date(rs.getTimestamp(10).getDate()+rs.ge tTimestamp(10).getTime());

SimpleDateFormat sf = new SimpleDateFormat ("dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm:ss a");
String formatteddate = sf.format(strfinaldate );

But I am getting the o/p as 10-09-2007 12:00:00 am

Please tell me how do I get the exact date/time

Thanks

You can pass a Timestamp to the format method of the SimpleDateFormat class. Try that and see if you get the correct thing.

I tried doing with passing the timestamp object but still getting the same o/p.
Also I tried to print this value :

String cal = ""+tsdate.getHours()+tsdate.getMinutes()+tsdate.ge tSeconds();
where tsdate is the timestamp object.

Its showing as 000

Can anyone tell me why I getting this output though in databse it is showing as

If the column data type is Date, then you should be using rs.getDate to extract the date.

I have even tried this way -
Date strfinaldate =rs.getDate(10);

SimpleDateFormat sf = new SimpleDateFormat ("dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm:ss a");
String formatteddate = sf.format(strfinaldate );


But still getting the same o/p as before

Did you try to retrieve the date using overloaded getDate method that takes a Calendar as well?
Perhaps your driver is returning the wrong date then

Just thought about it a bit more.
You have an Oracle Date column that's storing both date and time.
You want to retrieve both the date and time fields.

So in your sql that retrieves the date, cast the Date to Timestamp using Oracle's TO_TIMESTAMP function then use rs.getTimeStamp to get both the date and time values. Tell us how that goes.

Thanks a lot !!! I tried with oracle's to_char function in the query .
I could then get the exact value .

So the TO_TIMESTAMP function didn't work but the TO_CHAR function worked?

I didn't try with TO_TIMESTAMP .
