Hi,

if you do 

Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
cal.setTime( new java.util.Date() );
stmt.setTimeStamp( 1, new java.sql.Timestamp( cal.getTime().getTime() )
);

where param 1 is a column with datatype timestamp.

And then you do

rset.getTimeStamp( 1 );

to select the same column,

you get an exception, because the setTimeStamp did a toString() on the
java.sql.Timestamp, which returns "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.fffffffff".  Then
the select statement will return something like this: "2000-06-03
11:47:47.85-04" and the getTimeStamp tries to shove thaat into a
SimpleDateFormat initialized with this: "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:sszzz".

Would the following be a bad way to fix this?

Check if the string with the date value contains "." and then use a
different format string.

I think it would probably be better if the server always returned
"yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.SSSzzz" regardless of whether milliseconds were
specified in the Insert/Update.
