public class DbDate
extends DbDateTime

The DbDate class wraps a value of primitive type long in an object. An object of the type DbDate contains a single field whose type is long.

In addition, this class provides several methods for the interconversion of a DbDate and a String, as well as other constants and methods used when dealing with a DbDate.

DbDate

public DbDate()

Constructs an uninitialized DbDate. This DbDate object is mutable until the value and the description of the column are set.

DbDate

public DbDate(java.sql.Date dt)

Constructs an uninitialized DbDate. This DbDate object is mutable until DbColDesc is set.

Parameters:

dt - The value holding a java.sql.Date object.

DbDate

public DbDate(DbColDesc desc)

Constructs an uninitialized DbDate. This DbDate object is mutable until the value is set.

Parameters:

desc - The value to be represented by the DbColDesc object.

getDate

public final java.sql.Date getDate()

Returns a java.sql.Date object using the milliseconds time value. If the milliseconds value contains time information, this method will return the time component to the time in the default time zone (the time zone of the Java virtual machine running the application) that corresponds to zero GMT.

setDate

public final void setDate(java.sql.Date v)

Sets an existing Date object using the given milliseconds date value. It uses Date.getTime() to retrieve value.

Parameters:

v - The valid date value.

set

public void set(java.sql.ResultSet rs,
                int col)
         throws java.sql.SQLException

Sets a newly allocated DbDate object that represents the long value indicated by the ResultSet parameter and an index of the column.

Specified by:

set in class DbValue

Parameters:

rs - The ResultSet to be fetched.

col - The index of the column.

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException - if the ResultSet does not contain the index.

set

public void set(JRHierarchicalDataset hds,
                int col)
         throws java.sql.SQLException

Sets a newly allocated DbDate object that represents the long value indicated by the JRHierarchicalDataset parameter and an index of the column.

Overrides:

set in class DbValue

Parameters:

hds - The JRHierarchicalDataset to be fetched.

col - The index of the column.

Throws:

java.sql.SQLException - if the ResultSet does not contain the index.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns a String object representing this DbDate's value. The value is returned as a string. If the value is null, it returns "NULL".

Specified by:

toString in class DbValue

Returns:

a string representation of the value of this object.

clone

public java.lang.Object clone()

Creates a clone of this DbDate object.

Specified by:

clone in interface jet.util.DbValueable

Specified by:

clone in class DbValue

setValue

public void setValue(java.lang.String v)

Sets a newly allocated DbDate object that represents the String value indicated by the String parameter.

Specified by:

setValue in class DbValue

Parameters:

v - The String to be converted to a DbDate. The String object represents a date in the format "yyyy-[m]m-[d]d". The leading zero for mm and dd may also be omitted.
