Dear List,
the last day I had a hard time figuring out how to hand over timestamps
using prepared statements.
The table looks like this:
trader=# \d trader.tickdata
Table "trader.tickdata"
Column | Type | Modifiers
-------------------+-----------------------------+-----------
id_instrument | smallint | not null
id_stock_exchange | smallint | not null
timestamp | timestamp without time zone | not null
price | double precision | not null
Now I would like to retrieve ticks using a prepared statement like this:
-- GET TICKDATA
select
t1.id_instrument,
t1.id_stock_exchange,
t1."timestamp",
t1.price,
coalesce(t2.quantity,0) quantity
from
trader.tickdata t1
left join trader.volumedata t2
ON (t1.id_instrument=t2.id_instrument AND
t1.id_stock_exchange=t2.id_stock_exchange AND
t1."timestamp"=t2."timestamp")
where
t1.id_instrument= ?
AND t1.id_stock_exchange= ?
--careful with TIMEZONE here!
AND t1."timestamp">= ?
AND t1."timestamp"<= ?
ORDER BY t1."timestamp" ASC;
If I hand over java.util.Date or java.sql.Date or java.sql.Timestamp the
query will be executed but returns the wrong number of records;
However, if I change the query into:
-- GET TICKDATA
select
t1.id_instrument,
t1.id_stock_exchange,
t1."timestamp",
t1.price,
coalesce(t2.quantity,0) quantity
from
trader.tickdata t1
left join trader.volumedata t2
ON (t1.id_instrument=t2.id_instrument AND
t1.id_stock_exchange=t2.id_stock_exchange AND
t1."timestamp"=t2."timestamp")
where
t1.id_instrument= ?
AND t1.id_stock_exchange= ?
--careful with TIMEZONE here!
AND t1."timestamp">= cast(? as timestamp)
AND t1."timestamp"<= cast(? as timestamp)
ORDER BY t1."timestamp" ASC;
and hand over a formated date "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss" it works correctly.
Now I have on simple questions please:
What is the correct way to hand over a Java Date parameter (avoiding the
double String manipulation)?
Thank you and best regards!
Andreas
