WITH
LOCAL
TIME
ZONE
data types and provides methods for operations on these two Oracle data types. The OraTimeStamp
represents a date-time value that stores the following information: year, day, hour, minute, second, and nanosecond.
The OraTimeStamp
object is created by the OraSession.OraCreateTimeStamp
method or by calling the Clone
method on an existing OraTimeStamp
object.
An OraTimeStamp
object can be bound using ServerType
ORATYPE_TIMESTAMP
or ORATYPE_TIMESTAMPLTZ
. This allows the binding of a value to a parameter associated with an Oracle TIMESTAMP
or an Oracle TIMESTAMP
WITH
LOCAL
TIME
ZONE
data type in a SQL or PL/SQL statement respectively.
When binding a string associated with a TIMESTAMP
or a TIMESTAMP
WITH
LOCAL
TIME
ZONE
data types, the ServerType
must be specified to be a string type (for example, ORATYPE_VARCHAR2
, ORATYPE_STRING
) and the string must be in the format specified by the NLS_TIMESTAMP_FORMAT
.
