java - JDBC ResultSet getDate losing precision

Question

I am losing precision in my ResultSet.getDate(x) calls. Basically:

rs = ps.executeQuery();
rs.getDate("MODIFIED");

is returning dates truncated to the day where MODIFIED is an Oracle TIMESTAMP field of default precision. I think there may be some JDBC tweak I'm missing; usually TIMESTAMP is compatible with DATE, but I'm hoping I don't have to redefine the entire table.

Answer 1

ResultSet.getDate() returns a java.sql.Date, not a java.util.Date. It is defined to be a timeless date. If you want a timestamp, use ResultSet.getTimestamp()!
