OraTimeStamp Object

Description

The OraTimeStamp object represents the Oracle TIMESTAMP and Oracle TIMESTAMP 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.

Remarks

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.
