Thread: Convert Timestamp to Date?

Hi, is there a way to convert java.sql.Timestamp to java.util.Date
type?  It seems like there should be because Timestamp is basically a
wrapper for Date, but there doesn't seem to be any method to do this.
I could have Timestamp output a string and then have Date parse the
string, but that seems very inefficient.

Thanks

There is not need to convert these two datatypes.  Timestamp is a
subclass of Date.  Thus in the OO sense a Timestamp object is a Date
object.  You can just cast a Timestamp object to a Date.
